help me choose a quilt...please!




I need help-desperately! I have been scouring blogs, books and the Internet in general to try and find something to do with my new fabric...I bought a few yards of fabric (far left) and also a few sample packs from Fabriccloset on Etsy. They are 9'x11' and i have about 25 of them to use. I bought them with a play mat in mind, but now i think i want to quilt with them instead....But what to do??? I don't know if they are too small to make a log cabin...i have never tried that before...or maybe the half triangle squares with linen...hhhmmm what do you think? Can you help?

  2. Either - it would make a great scrappy log cabin - there is a flickr scrappy log cabin group - there are some great ideas there.

  3. Either would look great. A scrappy log cabin is nice and simple, but looks really effective. Half square triangles can be more of a pain in the bum, but if you get triangle papers it makes the job MUCH easier, and less monotonous. What about a simple brick pattern? That always looks great. There's a pattern on Amy Butler's website, you could adapt it to suit you.
