Do you have any idea where you bought this fabric? At a Quilt Shop or at a plact like JoAnn's or online? I absolutely love it and want to make a graduation quit for my daughter with Stack n Whack and I want to find a bright print like this. good thing she doesn't graduate until next spring so I have some time to find something similar to this. I like your quilt with the bright blocks with the other white blocks. Next question. Any idea how much material you had to start with when you made this quilt? I have no idea how much material to buy to make a large quilt with the stack and whack method. I know it will take lot of material as there will be some waste. I just have no idea how many yds. to buy. Thanks for anything you can remember about all this.

This SNW shows how you can use any fabric as long as you like the colors. It does not take as much fabric as you think with a solid background color.

Beautiful! I love to make stack and whack, it's absolutely fascinating to see the diverse blocks that come from one fabric! My problem is that once I have the blocks all put together, I want to whack up more fabric and start again before I finish the previous quilt. I'm working on one now, I just posted a pic yesterday, I call it Hippie Love Beads. I'm at that stage I just described, I'm working on putting the top together, not nearly as much fun as making the blocks.
