    Lovely fabrics. Can't wait to see pictures when you're finished.

    Those fabrics are beautiful. I think it's going to be great.

    Pretty fabrics! Another similar pattern, using smaller pieces would be the Yellow Brick Road by Atkinson Designs. Just a thought since it is to be a wall hanging~

    My daughter made a turning twenty in black/white then did one of black/white/red--both are very nice.

    I love these fabrics. I used the first 2 on the right to make my Bow Tuck Purse. Great minds must think the same.

    Love the fabrics. Have two of them in my own stash. A Turning Twenty quilt is on my list to make. The list is getting longer and longer.

    I'm doing a black and white Turning Twenty but only using 3 b/w fabrics - calling it Wannabe Turning Twenty. Red would be pretty with it. Have yet to see a r/b/w quilt I did not like. I am not using an accent color with this quilt - strictly black and white.

    CHANGED MY MIND about making a Turning Twenty Quilt. While I was upstairs looking to see if I had any red/white fabrics (which I don't have), I came across 10 stripped units that were leftovers from when I did the black and white fabric fling, plus, I found a huge amount of 2 inch strips that are all ready cut and waiting to be sewn together. So my mind has been made up, I will be doing another black and white fabric fling as the wedding gift, so by doing that I will only have to make 22 more stripped units. so technically I am 1/3 of the way done with the stripped units. :) I also found leftover ones for a Batik Fabric Fling. And I also realized, I NEED TO GET THAT ROOM ORGANIZED. I also found about 100 seven inch triangles that are left overs from a pinwheel quilt I did. Guess that should be my New Years resolution this year...organize the sewing room. Any volunteers to help me????
