    Great job! I think the green from the first quilt would work well in place of black for Joann's flamingo quilt.

      It’s Evening Stroll from the One Block 3-Yard book. I’m currently making it for my nephew who likes dark green. I like that it highlights the dark/#3 fabric in addition to the focus/#1 fabric.

    Always love these choices , my favorite, for the last one would be using the aqua/blue as a #2.

    Matchmaker episodes always give me confidence to pick an unusual fabric that I like but don't know what to do with.

    Oh my gosh, I have the sea shell fabric, made it several years ago for my husband’s Aunt. She loved seashells, unfortunately she had terminal cancer and I wanted her to have a quilt. She made one for me, when I was going through breast cancer. I used Bold Blocks. Love the pattern you used, but it was not around when I made it. I’d post a picture here, but it does not let you.

    I'm so glad you showcased a softer fabric, the sea shells, as the focal fabric. I have a similar fabric I was having a hard time with. You have solved my dilemma! As usual you have given me inspiration!!

  • @M-hc9xm
    @M-hc9xm Před 2 měsíci

    The story behind the flamingo fabric hit me. What drives me to control my stash is someone having to organize bins and bins of fabric!

  • @helenaMe325
    @helenaMe325 Před 2 měsíci

    Matchmaker is the one I look forward to the most! Such gorgeous fabrics today. Not as keen on the seashells as I prefer bright but wow! You made it so beautiful and gorgeous putting it together with the other fabrics. Another stunning video teaching us so much about matching 😀😀💜💜

    Everything is so beautiful today. I had a hard time concentrating as I was struck by the quilt behind you. Couldn't take my eyes off of it!! But, as usual, you did an awesome job with the swatches today. Also, as usual I'm inspired to go digging through my stash and see what I can do. Love all you patterns! :D

    The flamingo fabric looks like #3, it gets lost in the quilt.

    @melindamckenry6368 Před 2 měsíci +2

    Fran, always enjoy your matchmaker videos. Behind you during this video is a beautiful quilt - can you share the name of the pattern please? Thank you. My eye kept being drawn to it.

  • @cathlyndeutsch9209
    @cathlyndeutsch9209 Před 2 měsíci +1

    I like them all except for the pinwheel one. I like the pattern, but the pink and black were so overwhelming that the interesting print kind of got lost.

  • @carlindatrenholm6586
    @carlindatrenholm6586 Před 2 měsíci

    When I saw the pinwheel party quilt I had an idea. Fabric Café has a free goodies for bold block patterns, what about doing one that has patterns with minimal seam matching? I love all of the videos and the kits give me ideas for my next quilts. Thank you 🧵🌸

    @mary2240 Před 2 měsíci +2

    What is the pattern of the quilt hanging behind you? It’s beautiful. I would have chosen that pattern for the flamingo quilt because of the bigger square, however, your choices are great as usual. ❤️

    • @cinnasugar2
      @cinnasugar2 Před 2 měsíci +2

      Oh my gosh, I was coming on to ask that same question! I love that quilt and would be happy to know the particulars of it 😊

    • @FabricCafe
      @FabricCafe  Před 2 měsíci +2

      The pattern behind me is called Evening Stroll and it's from our One Block 3-Yard Quilts book. And you're right, those flamingos would look great in that pattern too! Fran

    • @mary2240
      @mary2240 Před 2 měsíci +1

      @@FabricCafe I’ll check to see if that’s one of your books that I have. If not, looks like I’ll be getting another 3 yard quilt book. Thanks, Fran.

  • @Alisha-fe4gk
    @Alisha-fe4gk Před 2 měsíci

    Do you have any tips for when I don't have a full yard of fabric? For instance, which patterns work with 6- 1/2 yard amounts?

  • @jeanetterisner8239
    @jeanetterisner8239 Před 2 měsíci

    Sounds like with 7 yds some of it was going to be used as backing also
