BellaOnline Forums Hobbies and Crafts Sewing What to make from a fat quarter of material

Our craft group members each put a fat quarter in a brown paper bag with the member's name pinned on it, and each member took a bag with the purpose of creating something for that person out of their material for a Christmas gift. The idea was to give us plenty of time for creating. The bag I chose happened to have the fat quarter from the most gifted and prolific member of our group! Can anyone inspire me please?? I really would like to make her something a little special.
I would be so grateful for suggestions!

What does it look like?

I've seen a book on projects to make using a single fat quarter - you might check your local library.

Also, I just saw this cool flower that can be used as a broach -BellaOnline ALERT: Raw URLs are not allowed in these forums for security reasons. Please use UBB code. If you don't know how to do UBB code just post here for help - we will help out!

I saw this post some time ago and apologize for the delay in responding. I do have a great idea for using a fat quarter of material for your project - make a silly-faced fabric critter bag! Children love them, and adults think they are charming.
My newest sewing article is a book review that covers this subject - it is on Mary Link�s book - Fast Fun & Easy Fabric Critter Bags: From Stuff Stashers to Beach Bags to Pillowcases (2007) by C&T Publishing.
