It's a beauty

I do that ALL the time. Especially with fabric for baby quilts.

That's beautiful- when I have fabrics that I really love, I'm always afraid I'll pick the wrong pattern to make, and it won't be the perfect quilt!

My friend and I are like that sometimes and we have solved our dilemma this way--I call her and ask her to come over to my house and make the 1st cut! And when she has something she is putting off cutting she will call me and ask me to come to her house and make the 1st cut-then we are off to the races. It will be beautiful-so just phone a friend!!

Your fabric is beautiful and when you make it using that beautiful pattern, no one will look at you funny with it wrapped around you. :-) I've had the same issue, I just had to cowgirl up and do it, it really does get you going, 'cause you want to finish the project. Best of luck,

mess it up. I just so much want perfection when its nearly impossible for me to achieve. I cant think of how many times I have pulled it out and looked pondered and put it back
do you feel that way about your fabrics or do you just go for it.

Happy Quilting, Sandra

Well We are all waiting for you to cut it up and make your quilt. It is beautiful material, can hardly wait to see what you make.

..."Just Do It" Now doubt it's going to be a favorite of yours. Just look at the beautiful fabrics you have chosen for it. You'll love it so much more when you can cozy up in it during these cooler days ahead.

Just go for it!! You will do a great job and you will get to enjoy your fabric even more when it is out somewhere in your home everyday!

i have a shelf full of fabric i love so much i dont want to cut it , i think my New Years resolution is going to be that i use it!! we will see if that works

If you use it, you don't have it any more--my old attitude. My DIL once said "You bought it to use it, didn't you." A NEW concept..Use it. I finally realized the stores are full of fabric, and I can always get more that I love as much. Use it..and start another love affair!
