This wide floral stripe repeats 5 times across the width, and has a lengthwise repeat of about 12". Of course this will make a lovely border, but you can also stack it for great Stack-n-Whack blocks!

Another border stripe, shown here at a smaller scale so you can see the unique layout design. One half is a border stripe, approx. 5" wide, with 4 repeats. The other half is a tossed floral design. If you're making a Stack-n-Whack quilt, you can split the fabric up the center, use the allover side for the blocks, and use the other side for a coordinating border! Or, get two different quilts from the yardage. The symmetrical border stripe is also great for Stack-n-Select projects. Lengthwise repeat about 12".

Here's another fabric designed with Stack-n-Whack® projects in mind. The snapdragons run in rows across the fabric. The background color alternates from blue to green. If you cut repeats from both sections, you can alternate the pieces in your block for an interesting look. See the Friendship Fans quilt from Magic Quilts by the Slice for an example of this effect.
  This low-contrast coordinate print is designed to make a nice background or accent fabric for the larger prints. It's based on a photo of some greenery in my mother's garden.
  To complete the collection, here's a stripe with a natural, casual feel. I often use narrow stripes as an accent, for skinny borders, bias trims, etc. This one is based on a photo of a leaf with dew drops.
