I would love to see pictures of items you made with them. I have hundreds of FQs also

This was posted recently. I thought it would really be neat for fat quarters. I need help figuring out the pattern/process

Personally, I like almost any Atkinson Design quilt as they are almost all FQ friendly. Also Calico Cottage has a good variety of FQ quilt patterns.

I'm curious why folks recommend Turning Twenty and Yellow Brick road whenever someone asks about a FQ pattern. Yes, both use FQs and are easy, but neither design seems terribly attractive to me - more like random rectangles here and there with no discernible pattern. Kind of the ultimate scrappy (and not in a good way)
