    Breathe...Take the pattern out and review instructions... Take a deep breathe and cut away...it will come out beautiful.... Then you have an excuse to buy more fabric!!!!!

    Yes I understand totally. I have two weaknesses. Yellow and Blues and Pansies. Sometimes I think I'd be better off framing my favorite fabrics and hanging the pictures around my house.

    You can do it, you can do it, you can do it... Just think of that little train and go. Good advice to read it all through and take it slow, one step at a time.

    The fabric you have there is so pretty. It will make a beautiful quilt no matter what pattern you use.

    I know where you are coming from, but don't do what I have done; I have held onto a piece of Thai silk for 30 years! Now I still can't cut into it because I am so fat now that there is not enough fabric. So, cut it, use it, and enjoy it. There will be other beautiful fabric for you to buy and enjoy.

    Cut up that beautiful fabric and make yourself a beautiful quilt that you can enjoy each and every time you look at it. It will still be beautiful and you will enjoy it soooooo much more in use! (Love the pattern, too!)

    I feel your 'pain' about cutting that fabric. I have several of pieces in that same line of fabric that I haven't cut up either!
