And a little while ago, I won a bundle of 10 fat quarters of Across the Pond from Cloud 9 Fabrics. I want to turn them into a quick lap quilt, and I'm looking for pattern recommendations. I think I'd like to add in a solid, but don't want to buy more prints. Any suggestions for something that uses 10 fat quarters?
Linking up to WIP Wednesday and Show & Tell.

That little shopping bag is so cute! I think it's nicely scrappy. :)
How about something like this for your fat quarters?

I like the shopping bag. How about a new wave quilt for your FQ's? Here's one I did: http://www.jansquilts.com/2010/11/new-wave-quilt.html
That shopping bag is sooo cute, and definitely scrappy enough! I wish I had some quilt pattern recommendations... I hope you get some good ones!
It`s very cute and with beautiful scraps.
I love your shopping bag. Did you follow a pattern or could you do a tutorial on it?
I'm in that same swap and can only hope that you have my name. Love the bag!!!
@Sallie ~ sorry, I should have linked that in the post. I roughly used this pattern:

Have you tried looking through the Moda Bake Shop. They have some great tutorials.
The shopping bag is a great idea for the scrappy swap. As for the quilt, maybe try a pattern you haven't done before...I know there are many just can't think of one off of the top of my head right now. Let us know what pattern/design you decide to do. :)
I love your scrappy bag. Lucky partner.
Also I love this pattern. I am sure you could adapt it to fit your fat quarters.
