I bought a yard of the blue floral asian print --I just loved it , but didn't know what I wanted to do with it . And didn't want to cut it up . So I decided to cut 12" blocks and make a few sampler blocks with it. This is just the top so far, because I am not sure what I want to put on the back yet.

Lovely! What a nice way to create your own pattern and use your focal fabric.

Wow- very pretty and unique! I would have thought you had a lot more than a yard into it. Very cool!!

That's a very creative way to use some gorgeous fabric. Nice job!

Very pretty quilt. What a creative way to use that wonderful fabric. I like your pattern.

Ummm.....you didn't know what to do with it?
I think you found EXACTLY what to do!
It's beautiful!

Thank you everyone. It was one of those fabrics that are too pretty to cut. But I had it for 2 years and thought I'd better do something with it.

That's beautiful. I love your fabrics and the pattern is just very lovely.

Stunning. Love the fabrics.

That's different, I like it!

Beautiful!!! I love the fabric and the design!!! :D :D :D

That is perfect! I love Asian fabrics and that is just the way to present it!

Ooooo, really pretty! Where did you find those fabrics?

That's a beautiful fabric. Love what you have done with it!!!

that is so gorgeous. GREAT JOB!!!!!!!!!!!!

Very pretty! You've showcased the fabric beautifully.

I love blue.......you did a great job on that :D

Love that fabric -- and you made a gorgeous top with it!

Gorgeous, looks like it went together really quick for you too. I love how you placed the dresdin fan blocks, it really gives the quilt movement that compliements the appearance of water in the Asian print.

Isn't it funny how so many of us dread making that first cut on an exceptionally pretty fabric or one that we really like? But we all buck up and take blade and ruler to it eventually and look at the great results we can get.

Thanks sew for sharing.
Did blocks that have meaning for Son and Bride as wedding presnt...but have not put together.
Nice to see how Asian fabrics work together.
Hope to get their :-) :D top together as Christmas pres.

It turned out very pretty. I wouldn't have wanted to cut those fabrics up either - but they would probably still be sitting in my stash! You're very clever :thumbup:
