Can we purchase just a second kit with fabric and no pattern (since got pattern with the first kit)?

I love the fabrics in my kit! Can I cut my fabric now, or should I wait for the class with Diane on the 19th? Are there any corrections to the cutting guide?

Hi Melanie, this is Diane Harris. It is fine to go ahead and cut now if you like! Be sure to correctly identify each fabric, matching it with its color name in the pattern. And as you cut, be sure to label each pile of patches with their color name and letter. This will help you SO MUCH later on! I can't wait to watch your progress. Did you get the summer color or the autumn version?
-
I received my Summer Splash kit- so beautiful! I generally prefer to wash fabric for a new project. Is there any reason you would not recommend this?

Hi Kathy, this is Diane Harris. I think it would be okay to prewash the fabrics, though honestly it's no longer necessary. Back in the 80s and 90s, I washed everything but it seems that fabrics are more colorfast now, and if you do not wash, you have a little more "body" to work with. I think you'll have better results if you don't prewash, but that's just one opinion!

Hey quilting friends! This is Diane Harris, designer of Summer Splash. Just wanted to say hello to everyone who is making this little sampler quilt. I'm looking forward to teaching the classes that will walk you through the trickiest parts of the quilt--although really, it's all quite doable! I'll check in here often to see if there are questions. See you on July 19 for the first mini workshop!

Loved the first lesson by Diane Harris. Even though I have been quilting for almost 3 decades I learned things that
were explained in a different way and it was easier to understand why it was important. I am not one to follow a pattern
although I think her pattern is great. I planned to do it because of the miniature type size. This morning I got a newsletter
email from Kari Schell on how to draft a friendship ring variation of the Olympic Rings. I thought it would look great in
my variation of Summer Splash to include some Olympic stuff since they start in Paris in a week. This is the ring block
I drafted to put in my Summer Splash. This is going to be a fun project. HelenW
