I just opened a package from my daughter who lives in Australia. She sent me 1 1/2 yards of this beautiful cotton fabric! I am so excited. I need suggestions on what to do with it! Maybe a quilted wall hanging???? What do you think?
|
what ever you do it will be beautiful....cannot wait to see the finished project....
|
Very beautiful, a wall hanging ,or if you want a large quilt carefully cut out the blocks and frame them with nice colors.
|
It is so beautiful I would be afraid to cut it. I guess I would make a wall hanging, but I have no other ideas
|
I just finished a quilt top from "9-Patch Pizazz" that used some large blocks. It's so pretty, maybe use it as a border.
|
FANtaustric!
I'd make some into a big purse/ tote bag. Maybe a pillowcase, but not sure I'd want to lay my head on some of those critters! |
That is awesome! When I get fabric like this, I hate to cut it up cause there is only so much. I would be half tempred to take a big piece and use it as the center of a wallhanging!
|
I see some fussy cutting in your project. Great fabric.
|
It could also be the center panel for a quilt, using borders and fabric to enlarge it to a lap or twin size. A quilted wall hanging would be lovely, too!
|
Large tote bag.
|
So nice!
|
gorgeous fabric! Whatever you do it will be beautiful and you will always think of your DD when you look at it.
|
I really like that fabric. Enjoy!
|
beautiful fabric, a wall hanging would be pretty to hang in your sewing room, have fun and be creative
|
That will be fun to play with, whatever you decide!!
|
I would probably add it to my stash and pet it so often.
Next choice - leave it whole - frame it with borders, and quilt "on the lines" around each "picture" |
A tote bag!
|
I'd probably use a large portion for the center of a wall hanging, then make a large tote bag with more of it - love the fabric!
|
Love the fabric!
|
It's gorgeous. It really says Australia, doesn't it?

There is a pattern that looks like postcards across a quilt. I've seen some on the quiltingboard in Pictures. I would use part of your wonderful fabric in a quilt like that to maximize it's pizzazz. Maybe if your search postcard quilts you can find some samples. Great fabric!

What ever you do, dont cut it!!LOL. Too beautiful. Do a cheater's or a whole cloth quilt.
