There are 20 prints which is just perfect for a Turning Twenty quilt. I was hoping it would turn out looking something like this quilt. Isn't it beautiful!!!
But I couldn't make the first cut. The fabrics kept saying "No, No! Another pattern. No, No! Another pattern." So I put down my rotary cutter and stepped away from the fabric. After a short time browsing Flickr, I found this bit of inspiration:
Perfect and all the fabrics agreed! I can't wait to lay it out, sew it together, so that I can show it to you.
Love,
Erin

I like the brick pattern over the turning 20 pattern too. Love those fabrics.

Love it, Erin. I'm so glad you listened to the fabric! I always think that if you spend some quiet time with it, it will tell you what it's supposed to be. :-)
I like the first pattern best, but I know that the bricks will look great done in that collection.....I think you have quite a bit more variety than the person had that made the rectangular quilt.
My generation (quiltmaker-wise, not necessarily age-wise) drove ourselves crazy trying to best each other with the almighty triangle, thinking every block had to look like something (such as a star or a basket, etc.) I love the simplicity of today's quilts.......what a regeneration !
