    That is such a gorgeous piece of fabric and the colors I love too. I understand how you feel about cutting into that beautiful fabric. It looks like you have some great ideas from others. I think Warm Wishes pattern would be very nice made up in that fabric but just my personal opinion.. Good luck in whatever pattern you chose and share a pic with us when you start on a project with it.

    If the fabric has an 18 inch repeat, you would not have enough for a SAW. If the repeat were only 12 inches you would have enough. Stack and Wacks are unbelievably beautiful. Every star is very different from the last one and every one is gorgeous.

    My first thought was stack and whack. It is a beautiful piece of fabric.

    If I had that fabric, I would be wearing it. It’s really pretty.

    The fabric is very pretty. What about finding a solid (maybe a batik) to go on the other side and then FMQ around the flowers and designs on the printed fabric? Like a whole-cloth quilt.

    Now when have you seen at pattern at $2 in recent times with free shipping to USA only?
    Only five left ..... so for those interested, don't delay as you know they will be snapped up fast!
    This link did not work for me. I had to google the pattern. I think this would be a great pattern (Sundance) for this fabric. Very basic so you would not really have to purchase a pattern if you did not want to spend the $$ on a pattern. I’d make the small blocks “wonky”. :-)

    Sorry ... I guess Eleanor Burns doesn't like us passing links on!
    Yes, definitely a quilt that one could develop their own pattern, after seeing the visual.

    I was thinking Warm Wishes too; uses larger blocks so it's show off the pattern.
