Ok, if I can pull it off, I'm doing bunnies AND flowers (spring!). I like to mix things up!

Been digging through the stash for spring fabrics. Looking through the window, it looks all warm and springing out there, but step outside and I'm reminded it's not really. Have to help DH spread some gravel, then to the sewing room!

Here's the fabrics I have narrowed it down to. Now to choose the finalists.... Lol
The colors are brighter than my pic shows. I just can't get nice bright pics lately..I'm sure the dark cloudy snowy days aren't helping. Kind of matching my outlook lately. So hoping some quilting with bright colored fabrics will help!

Jan,
I'm happy you like them! I have to admit, I agonize over fabric choices on every single project I make. Seriously, it takes me forever..and then I 2nd and 3rd guess myself. I changed my whole idea up on yours 3 times (so far).
My daughter-in-law has told me if I had less fabrics, it'd make it much easier. I looked at her like she had sprouted 3 heads.. haha
But I kind of have to say she's right. When I was in "Grammy's Fabric Shop" wandering around (evidently with a look of "Ruh-roh" on my face), my dh came in. I was talking to him about my idea, and about the comment our ddil had made that it'd be easier with less fabrics.
Bless his heart, my guy looked around, and said, "Probably so, BUT sometimes you need a certain shade of a certain color, right?". I could've kissed him! So I did .

Then I spent more time choosing fabric combos..lol.

Question: How do you feel about flannels or fleece? As in I'm thinking the flannels make a nice "fur like" or "downy as in ducky" texture.. Are you okay with that?

Klaws,
There's no way Teresa won't love what you make her!

Tlambing,
The lil St Patrick's quilt in your avatar pic (the one I thought was arriving in my mailbox
any day), did you make up the pattern?

Regards,
Kif
