As long as they're all the same size, I don't care. I just have to remember to pick up three of them, otherwise I have to cut fabric from my stash :-)Andree G.

I know - crazy but that was my first impression! Pretty quilt. I hate it when a pre cut is wrong... because I always assume it is correct for some reason. I should know better. I have some too small blocks with my hearts using pinking edged 10 inch squares. Love having extra fabric... you know, cause I love scrappy quilts and the more extra fabric the better. Good luck with a name.

I also like your choice of fabrics. <br />One of my favorite parts of quilting is cutting the fabrics (the other is binding) so I'm not really a fan of precuts either. They cost more than by-the-yard and why should I pay someone to do that cutting I enjoy so much? Never the less, I do have a few that I couldn't resist (less than 5, I'd guess) I collected a couple packages of 2 in strips of batiks for a project, but I can't remember what it was now :( And I have another that has a lovely collection of florals that I don't ave plans for, I just look at them, something will come to me.CathyQuiltshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09179692688604953170noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3805690613494438271.post-50805818979729488982018-05-19T07:41:09.898-05:002018-05-19T07:41:09.898-05:00Is this a pattern you are writing?

Not always possible, but nice when it happens!Louisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06306854459459257368noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3805690613494438271.post-59670551537759799812018-05-19T06:25:38.319-05:002018-05-19T06:25:38.319-05:00Pretty quilt!

I have no good ideas for names (I rarely do!), but I definitely would rather a pattern leave room for error than have just enough! But I'm currently working on "Swoon" and that one uses fat quarters to the end. The pattern clearly states "cut carefully" and has the cutting diagram drawn out so you see just how tight it is, so that's okay, too. Good luck with the bonus pieces - that's always a fun challenge and I'm sure you'll make something fantastic!Katiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01515254293191853580noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3805690613494438271.post-77566576920776568802018-05-18T13:27:13.180-05:002018-05-18T13:27:13.180-05:00Love the colors.

The design is really pretty - the first thing it brought to mind is middle east latticework (which I googled and is called Mashrabiya). :-)PaintedThreadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07430500003121265452noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3805690613494438271.post-59344515618542296742018-05-18T11:34:14.158-05:002018-05-18T11:34:14.158-05:00This is a very pleasing, graphic design!

I'll bet it is even more lovely with those gorgeous fabrics in real life.<br />The pattern immediately made me think of parquet flooring, so I would suggest the name Parquet.<br />Personally I would rather have leftover fabric, than not have enough to complete the quilt. That is very frustrating to me.<br />I had been told once that you measure precuts from the outer edge of the pinking, but as you experienced, precuts don't always seem to be the perfect dimension they claim.<br />So many ways to use those bonus HST. One of my favorite things to use up in mini quilts. :)<br />I hear the garden, as well. Put the annual flowers in yesterday, but still have the vegetable garden to plant, and the rose bed and raspberry patch to tend to before it gets too hot out there for more than a quick wedding and watering.Janet O.https://www.blogger.com/profile/05083607398709252597noreply@blogger.com
