I just love this board! I just finished a quilt that dozens of quilters admired, and I just got the glimmer of an idea for my next quilt!

I have this wonderful fabric that I was going to use in a Warm Wishes pattern. I really struggle with selecting fabrics....and someone on of the threads said she always did a sample block before she started, so as to not waste fabric and time. Well, duh, I had never thought of that. So I did that just now with my fabric, and Warm Wishes is not going to look good for it.

So....I remembered a thread where someone was asking about what pattern for her red roses fabric. I just cruised thought those comments, auditioning the choices for my fabric, and wala (must not be a word, sorry...)...an idea is growing.

Like I said, I just LOVE this board. I get instant feedback and outstanding ideas. It doesn't et any better than that.
