What would I do with this fabric? Suggestions please
Ok ladies and gents
I have these three pcs of fabric about a yard each and I am out of ideas....nil....nothing...brain freeze but I need to sew to keep busy so pls help with any suggestions or patterns or ideas. I prefer it to be a wall hanging but all ideas are welcome.
Thanks

Attic windows? The Single Irish Chain would be nice also, using the cabin fabric as the center focal block.

Hmmm thank you both. I never did any of these two patterns so I guess it is time. On the Irish chain does it give different looks if I do the green for the five outside blocks and the other color the four squares or the opposite?
I can't even understand what I just asked but you ladies can figure this out....lol

I would suggest if you use Irish Chain that you choose certain focal points in your print for your blocks and distribute them evenly throughout the quilt. For example: the red barn/house? and perhaps a few different clusters of trees/flowers. just a suggestion. Have fun!

It is such divine fabric that I wouldn't be able to cut it - I would shadow quilt and maybe embroider the flowers and a few other bits and use the red as a small border 1/2" and the green wider
