[quote=LucyInTheSky]For my birthday, I used my $ to buy some of the Farmer's Market line. I've seen it and wanted and wanted and finally bought.

I first made the stack and slash 9 patches. I LOVE how they came out. I laid them out so you can see how each fabric moves through the blocks. Ultimately they won't be arranged like this, it's just so y'all can see how each block is the same and different.

This isn't the website I used for mine, but it's the same method, in case you want to make one. Super easy, done in an afternoon - http://www.bighornquilts.com/inspiration/strip/sns.html[/q Did you make all the slashes at once or slash and sew, slash and sew like the website said to do.

Thanks for the link to the tutorial. Where did you buy your fabric? I'd love to make on for my daughter's breakfast table. It's such a bright and cheery fabric.

I love this fabric line. I'm using it to make a "bug jar" quilt right now.

Most from fabric.com, rest from LQS (search "Farmers market" or "farmer's market"). Fabric.com had a coupon for 30% off or something, so it worked out to be a great deal for all the fabric.

Hate to tell you that I just went and spend $98 on Farmers Market fabric. OUCH and it's all your fault for showing your beautiful squares. Now I need to see the finished product. LOL (and I haven't figured out my sashing yet)
