This is so pretty, you did a great job sewing it. I have original fabric from the 1930's and can't bare to cut into it yet. I keep finding patterns to use it on, but never do. Maybe one day.....

What a stunning quilt! It's a real show stopper & well worth using your "good" fabric on. To answer your question, yes, I have "good" fabric that I don't to use. Unfortunately, I only have a yard of mine & have had it since the 1990's (yes, I'm THAT old... LOL!). I bought it on a lark & then when I realized how much I loved it, I went back to my LQS & they'd sold it all. Waaaaaaaaaaah! So, so much for that. I just cherish what I have. Maybe someday I'll be inspired to use it to as fabulous affect as you did with yours. Thank you for sharing this gorgeous quilt with us!
