    I hardly ever do mysteries, but I enjoy seeing what others do with them. Be sure to post.

    Really like your fabric choices, too, Fabriclovr. I hope I can find the amount of yardage for each group, in my stash, when I'm ready to join everyone. Everybody's fabric choices are really lovely.

    Thanks, Sewze! It seems like no matter what I make, I always end up with red in there somewhere. I had other things projects to finish too, but finally got them done yesterday morning. The cutting and sewing for this mystery go very quickly.

    Rainbow quilter, I love your choices also!

    I had to rethink my fabrics also. I didn't have enough of the B fabric to do the mystery. So through my stash again, came up with this combo:
