AND THE WINNER IS.... I went to the International Quilt Festival in Chicago on a bus with about 60 women. We were asked to bring fat quarters of reds, whites, and blacks for a drawing. Drum roll....I WON!!! I am not a quilter but now I will learn to quilt. Picture is of my new stash of 89 fat quarters! I'm a happy girl! Hugs, Suzanna

Lots of things you can do with fat quarters. There are many sites devoted to projects using fat quarters. Sounds like a wonderful trip and what a great ending for you!

Congratulations! It looks like a great variety of those colors, with the exception of course, of three. Let me see...you can make 2 ith bags of 1 FQ... you can make one of the peek a boo bags out of one color or 2 bags out of 2 contrast colored FQ..... or a stripped crossbody bag!!!.... or start a quilt top!....the possibilities are endless! Have fun with your stash whatever you decide.

Lucky you. Great selection there. As others have said so many things can be done with fat quarters. Towel Toppers or In The Hoop Zipper Bags.
Have fun deciding what to make first.
