BarbS-Thank you for your sweet words. I am still working out the borders in my head. I think I have them figured out, but just need to get them organized & cut so I can sew them up. My goal is to have this one done by the end of the weekend. Not sure if it will make it with my machine being difficult, but I'm going to try.

Susie, that's it! Thank you so much! Now I have a perfect visual to see where I want to place my DGS fabrics. Your fabrics are so soft and pretty. I think his will be very bold and manly. I'm going to work up a couple of blocks in his fabrics and post a pic to get opinions on them. Thanks again, I'm so excited!

I'm going to try to upload the pattern. It's a pdf file and there isn't a copyright. We'll see if it works...

Thanks, Ginny! That was one of those fabrics that just jumped out and said HEY! I want to be in a 5-yard! Find my partners, will ya?

lol! Sometimes it works that way, really, truly!

Richard--A good friend of mine gave it to me when she was teaching me how to make "real" quilts. My first attempts were really rough. She said it was an easy pattern that works up really fast. It's a Cottage Quilts pattern.

Found it! I did post it in the media section, but here are two shots of it. Full top (with Max's approval) and a close up so you can see the different fabrics.

Marie:

I think I saw a picture of the "Five Yard Quilt" somewhere on this site, can anyone help me to find it please?

Marie-I posted mine but I'll be darned if I can figure out where it went. I'll see if I can post it in the media section.
