Hmmm, I'm thinking about this... I'll look for some fabrics. I think I'll try to spread out and try some colors that I don't usually use.

This sounds like fun, I need to quit my job so I have more quilting time, oh but then I won't have money to buy more fabric. ....I am going to give it a try, but I may be lagging behind a bit.

Looks like a fun thing to try! I've not done a mystery quilt before. Going shopping in my stash.
|
I've pulled fabric from my stash - I guess I'm good to go. Love this stuff.

Here';s my fabrics...do you think they will work? And should I switch B and E, so the maroon is next to the orange instead of the brown? Anyone...would like your thoughts/ideas...
There is a lot more orange in the flowered fabric then this picture shows. |

Count me in! My first Mystery Quilt. Yay! Will join you on March 5. My son is getting married on March 3 and I don't have time now... shouldn't really even be here on computer today :o Have lots of fabrics to choose from - sounds like SO much fun...<te he!>
Blessings! |
Pretty colors. Will look nice together, but no, it would not be good to use F the teal also in position A. What you have is very pretty. Your teal will be prominent and very nice.

I will also use it for the outer border. Or should I leave it as it is in the picture? If I can have A & F the same, then I would omit fabric E from the pile. I want to wait to cut my fabrics until I can get some kind of an answer. Thanks. This is going to be fun. Love the fabrics others have chosen. I want mine for a baby quilt. I love these fabrics & have just been waiting to use them!

hope mine will work......not in stone as to which are B,C,D,E, may switch E and C, actually probably will.

To anyone who is on the fence, as they say, as to which color will go in which position, I will only make this one suggestion. Hold off on cutting the 3-1/2" strips until they are ready to be used. You know that F will be prominent, so cut the five 2-1/2" strips and wait for the next set of instructions. "Nuff said!
