pink and purple frog fabric
Do you remember that pink and purple frog fabric a few years back, it was at Walmart and JoAnns for awhile, a complete collection of coordinating fabrics?
I was organizing my sewing room when I discovered a bag of this fabric-Walmart $1 a yard stuff. I probably have ~10 yards of various fabrics. So, my question is did anyone make quilts with it? Could you post your photos? I know it was pretty popular at least in my area because just about everyone remembers it. I'll see if I can get a photo of my pile later.
Usually I have a pattern and then go search for the fabric. I'm not good with figuring out a pattern for a specific fabric.
I'm thinking about the QFK basic 4 patch idea- http://www.quiltsforkids.org/pattern...quilt-pattern/. but that's kind of boring. Maybe Warm Wishes...that may work...I'll have to see if that would work.

I made several kids quilts with it ( may still have some), but I gave them all away. Don't think I have any pictures. Also made a backpack for a girl who loves frogs
added-I found one in Warm Wishes pattern

There was so much of it at the time it was released. Everytime I went fabric shopping there were entire sections dedicated to this fabric line. I even have the green/pink/yellow camo fabric that goes with it. I'll post a photo of the fabrics tomorrow.
I only bought it because it was $1-2 a yard and I make a lot of comfort quilts for kids. I bought mostly the frogs so I need to find some more coordinating fabrics. I like the yellow and blue on the warm wishes. I have those pink frogs too.
If you do a google image search for pink and purple frogs there are still people selling it.
