From a piece of focus fabric
 
1 Attachment(s)
Going through my idea box, I found an ad from Robert Kaufman showcasing one of their Asian prints, and remembered a piece of this fabric, given to me a couple years ago. Imagine my surprise when I saw how much there was of it! I made this one, and will make two more like it, maybe pale pale yellow for the sash.
The top is square, must have, as usual, been holding the camera on an angle. Sigh ....

I really like how that came out. You amaze me with how you work with fabric. You make it look so easy. I have to make a horse quilt for a granddaughter. I may use your pattern for the center and then work my way out. You could be my inspiration.

Very pretty, nice pattern.

Your quilts are always wonderful, but this one and the last (monochromatic) are just wonderful. I'm into squares more than triangles, so these really appeal. You go, Judy! :-)

I have a piece of fabric that would be a shame to cut because the print is beautiful but a bit large. This would work to make an interesting quilt. Thanks for the good idea!

Oh, wow, I love that!

Pretty quilt and design! A great way to use up your fabric. The squares work well together with the different sashings.

Interesting and great use of fabric. I might make a similar quilt with fabric I've been saving for about 10 years, but had not found the right pattern.

Love how you put this one together --- love your focus fabric.

Very cool pattern. I have a couple fabrics I haven’t known what to do with- I may have to use your idea. :)

This looks great! I have a lot of Asian prints and am always looking for ways to arrange them in quilts.

I’m always looking for ideas like this for quilts we make & give through church. Can you share the pattern name or did you wing it ? Dimensions of big block and finished square would be so appreciated. Very nice !

I have a special piece of fabric that I have been hoarding for years; looks like I can use it now.
