    Wow! This is a neat pattern. I love your choices. It could be made in any selection of colors and still be fantastic. I love patterns that I can use over and over. This would be a neat scrappy with matching centers too.

    Can't wait to see your quilt when it is finished. May I ask what the pattern name is?

I would love to have input from you all, on what you think.
    Lots of you have said you have this fabric, and I got a PM from earlylace, asking if I could send her about 1 & 1/2 yards of the blue. I have 4 blues, but I only bought the 1/2 yard cuts that this pattern called for. Can anyone help her? Our Walmart is out, and I'm not sure if Joann's still has it. I don't drive, so I hoped one of you could 'step up' and help her? I don't know what color of blue she wants. I sent her a PM asking that question. {HUGS}

    I love the fabric. I found a fat quarter of brown in that print and was very fussy about what I would use it for. I wish I could find more and in the colors you have found.

    Nope, just have too many I already started, and must finish! :oops: I have to clear all the UFO's so I can walk into my sewing room (dump).
