Gorgeous! Horribly agonizing to cut gorgeous fabrics! I saw the "Just Can't Cut It" book and still can't cut using some of those nice patterns. The strange thing is that I have no fear of using, cutting and chopping into ugly fabric with hope because I have seen miracles happen, under a sewing machine, to something that started out ugly. What is strange is that I fear the reverse will happen with gorgeous fabrics. I can't believe I, an adult, get bullied and intimidated by pretty fabric! They get sliced when I notice myself cringing at their sight; the nerve of them in my own house! lol I know...the thought process is silly but it works for me and gets "can't cuts" into quilts, as they were intended for. I have a pile of fat quarters that are getting ready to learn who the boss is right now....grrrr lol. Have fun and can't wait to see what you do with your, hard to cut, lovely fabrics.

How about a Falling Charms quilt? Only I would cut the squares 6.5" instead of 5" and cut the sashing strips 2" wide instead of 2.5". Here is a link (take a good look at the quilt hanging in the background):
