sometimes I wish I could come up with something where I Wouldn't have to cut up fabric, but they call those sheets right? lots of time I have them scattered around my house so I can gaze at them with love and warm feelings! only other quilters know how I feel when I stroke my fabrics. LOL

I absolutely LOVE this line!

But I know how you feel, but I always feel better once it's made into something beautiful again :).

Melissa Corry said...

I have 2 jelly rolls in this line one in the pinks and one in the blues, I have been looking at them for 2 months now trying to figure out what I am making with them. Good luck on your project!

I have both the pink and green colorways hoping to find something exciting to do with them...eagerly anticipating what you'll do with them...

I think it's called tough love. Grin. I had the same problem with this line. Can't wait to see the finished product because I know it will be even more lovely than the bc (before cutting) version and then I will be inspired to cut into the next stack.

Have fun!!

darling fabrics. i sure don't have any teal/brown...most of my fabrics are from several years ago...trying to use up at least part of what i have before buying more..and it might take awhile as i have alot of the older fabrics..

annieb said...

I have that problem every time I buy new fabric...sometimes I just want to look at it, caress it and just plain admire it.

Angie said...

pity? more like jealousy. :)
How beautiful! Can't wait to see what you do with it.

Becky said...

Can't wait to see what it turns into!

Just think of the beautiful item you wil have once it's pieced back together again...have fun creating!

Jennifer Blosser said...

Boo ... sniff ... wipe ...

I do feel bad for you getting to cut into such purdy fabric. Do you want me to come up and help you hack it up? I will bring up some tissues and we'll get through it together!

Should I stop at Sonic on the way up?

Janie said...

That fabric is absolutely yummy!

scottylover said...

That fabric is gorgeous! I can't believe you are going to "hack" it up, :( I bet you make something wonderful with it...gee...does it match your new Paula Deen cookware??!

I have it in charm squares so it's all ready cut up for me :) It is absoulutely gorgeous...even prettier in real life. It's my next project!

Thimbleanna said...

You have my deepest sympathies Rachel. I have those fat quarter packs and can't bring myself to cut into them either. Good Luck!

Unknown said...

I love the fabric....what are you making with it?

goecker said...

Take a picture of the"stack" and you will always remember how nice it looks! I agree, it is SEW hard to cut into such beauty - this is the bud, now it must "flower" ...

TheBorman5 Plus1 said...

I too love this line. I can't wait to see what you do with it!!

Deborah H. said...

I'm so glad it's not just me that has trouble cutting fabric -- it's just so final! As a newbie to quilting sometimes I think maybe I should just buy precuts for awhile until I have more confidence. Then maybe the hacking will get easier!

amy smart said...

LUV this Lily and Will collection. Can't wait to see what you make with it!

Karen said...

I dreamed and planned my acquisition of the pink colorway... and then... it sat there, because I couldn't cut it, even though I knew where it was headed... now, the top is pieced, and I'm ready to finish it off... can't wait to do it, because there is a beautiful little girl (about to be born) just waiting for it! I hope yours has a happy destination, too!

Beverly said...

I know the feeling. It's almost MORE fun to buy it and look at it than it is to buy it and make something with it.
