So, I didn't think I had any Oriental fabric, so I ordered LOTS and LOTS because it was so pretty. (Almost $200.00 worth!) Then, I go through my stash once again and find a bunch of FQs and some yard cuts of Oriental fabric too. I have a girlfriend who's abusive husband broke a very cherished dish of hers that a friend brought back from Japan for her and I thought I would make her a quick quilt using the oriental fabric to hopefully make her feel better.
Anyway, I have washed a bunch of my fabric and plan on using tomorrow to sew away. Can I make more than two sets? I have a feeling once I get started, I won't want to stop. Too many pretty new fabrics to use.

Here is what I bought...

it will be exciting to see what color/pattern combinations you can come up. Looks like your could easily do 3 sets if you have the time before the deadline. Dont forget to post pics of the samples you do so we get the chance to ohhhh and ahhhhh

All these are at least a yard in length, so I figure each fabric will do at least twelve blocks. I also bought four yards of the black. I have noticed that a few others have the same BOB fabric, as well.
They have to arrive by the end of March, right? I probably will have them done tomorrow... but just in case, I want a little wiggle room.
