I have had some fabrics that I have been unwilling and/or "unable" to cut up just because I thought they were "too special to use".

Silly, maybe - but - - -I still enjoy getting them out and looking at them now and then.

That's a gorgeous fabric. I see it in that "woven" pattern, with white background.

Thanks for all your ideas. I like the idea of a chevron or something that spins. Trying some things out in EQ.

I have some of that fabric too! And I haven't decided what to do with it either!

That is beautiful fabric. If you have enough I would use it for the borders. Make a star or churn dash with this fabric as the centers. Star points could be with coordinating solids

Have you considered the Chandelier pattern? Some squares would remain large enough to show off the print while the smaller squares could be complementary fabrics. So many options!!
