Remember these?
I’ve struggled to figure out what fabric to put with these that would work. I wanted a solid, but couldn’t find anything I was happy with. Then I found a yellow tone on tone print that reads as a solid from a distance.
Yep! That will do! I used these dies to cut out the rectangles and squares.
And I had to sew a few to see how it looked.
The sewn pieces shown above will finish at 3 by 9 inches.
It’s bright! Have a great day!

How nice Katy! We can use a little sunshine. Thank you!
That choice was worth the wait!
Verry pretty
The yellow is the perfect choice!
What size quilt are you making and how do you determine how much background fabric you are going to need? For instance, for a full size quilt, what would you want to have for yardage? I am always afraid I will run out of the fabric I want to use.
I just love this piece you’ve sewn together…that pale-ish yellow is perfect hugs, Julierose
Oh, just what I needed to see today, some bright sunshine-y fabric! (We got 7 inches of snow yesterday – sigh).
