I am making a charm Tumbler quilt. I am far, far, far from having anywhere near enough different fabrics to finish it. I have about 30 fat quarters but I cannot bring myself to waste a fat quarter for a 4 inch tumbler piece! Anyone else have this problem?

Oh yes...but you have to get over it, or you won't make anything lol!!!!! :D

just take a deep breath ask the fat quater goddess for forgiveness and cut

Chop that baby up!

It's just a little bit--you'll have plenty left over for the next project. I love applique and every teeny little bit is good for something. Cut away! and enjoy yourself.

Ok that feels better. Thanks!

Oh my gosh--your replies make me giggle!!! :lol:

Lol i'm the same way, i dont even like to take the ribbon off a fat quarter, cus they're so pretty to look at, so i leave the ribbon on as long as possible, and just keep peeking inside to try and see the fabric!!! lol lol Ooooh, don't chop that baby! LOL LOL LOL

Oh...I know what you mean!!! I've finally decided that if I have to use just a little...it goes into the scrap bag...then I must replace it as soon as possible with a new WHOLE FQ!!! :lol: Otherwise, my stash feels pain!!!

Have you considered charms? By the way remember we LUV pics !!! :lol:
