Partly ...I always buy fabric before I have a plan. Partly because I generally wait until it goes on sale and partly because it's just pretty. When I get ready to sew I have a decent enough stash that I can start instead of needing fabrics. However, there is a fine line between what's enough fabric and too much! Good luck on finding a pattern. Check My Quilt Infatuation's blog. She has several free tutorials and I've never used one where the math was wrong (a frequent occurrence when things are free for some reason).Lisa Chttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12502089801927429325noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7667429570761867646.post-37663977506565154052016-06-16T07:10:36.184-06:002016-06-16T07:10:36.184-06:00Beautiful finish and very impressive for your 3rd ...Beautiful finish and very impressive for your 3rd finish ever!Cherylhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15612686505076697159noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7667429570761867646.post-75305333738361933372016-06-16T03:05:24.693-06:002016-06-16T03:05:24.693-06:00I always buy fabric before I know what I am going ...I always buy fabric before I know what I am going to do with - couldn't do it any other way!!

It does kind of get a bit bothersome when you need more for a certain pattern and can't find it, but sometimes you just NEED that fabric. :)<br />Not too much advice for patterns. Although a simple alternating square (think checkerboard) can be just the thing for a baby quilt if you have the right fabrics. :) Jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13942853868409355316noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7667429570761867646.post-32270382803506014062016-06-15T12:07:27.289-06:002016-06-15T12:07:27.289-06:00This looks awesome!

I do that too though, buying fabrics before I know what I'm doing to do with them then pray I have enough when the time comes. I don't think you could have picked a more perfect pattern for them.
