Just go buy some more in the same color family!

I love your colors. We all at one time or another don't buy enough and regret it later. It's just being a normal quilter.

This is really pretty - can you get coordinating fabric?

That's going to look great when it is done. I like the color combo too.

Oops, didn't read the whole entry. Try matching it with similar colors and make this block the center of a quilt or just do a little pillow or bag with it. Still very nice alone.

If you have your receipt and can identify which vendor you purchased this from, you can probably call or email them and include this picture to get more fabric. The colors are beautiful.... so soft and relaxing. My Mom's first quilt was a log cabin ... I need to make one some day.

Very pretty, maybe you can find more of this fabric online. One Thousand Bolts sometimes has fabric I can't find elsewhere. I love the color combo so lovely.
