Saying it with words and fabric

Have y'all seen our Say it With Words fabric panels?  I have been playing around with them for a couple of months now.  They really are a lot fun and you can make just about anything with them.  I wanted to show the most recent project I did using our Things Quilter's Really Think IV panel




I also used the Sassy Jelly Roll and for the backing I used 54" Dottie Fabric in celery.  In the picture above you can see where I had already cut the fabric panel apart into the individual sayings.



I used a basic log cabin pattern with strips from the jelly roll to surround each saying.


I couldn't decide if i wanted to use them as a quilt or cut them up individually.  I am soooo in love the Sassy fabrics....love, love, love them...aren't these colors gorgeous.


I decided to cut them up into individual squares.  With this panel you get 24 different sayings. 

I finished them all of by adding a grommet to the corner of each.


These would make great little gifts for all of your quilter friends.  There are so many ideas that you could try with these panels.  You could make a quilt.  Break them up and make a wall hanging.  I think these will be cute broken up into groups of 4 and given as coasters.

I am having so much fun with these panels.  Look forward to see many more in the the coming days.

I hope you are all having a GREAT day!
