    No, you can't assume that. Just use the two chips given.

    While I won't be able to sew along this year, I was considering what fabrics I might use if I were making the quilt. I loved last year's quilt, but I didn't enjoy working with black, so I think I would change the black to cypress green, and change the gray to blue. Do you think this would work, or would it be too much bright?

    I like those color options! They look great together!

    The neutrals are what have me a bit confused too. The one color chip is creamy and the other an icy blue. Guess I will stick with the creamy one since that is what I have in my stash.

    I am having a had time finding fabric, not many shops in my area. I wish some online quilting fabric store would compile a selection of fabrics that you could choose from.

    QUILT CAM ALERT !!

    Bonnie has scheduled a live quilt cam on her blog this Sunday (November 15) at 2:00 p.m. Eastern time. If you miss the live broadcast, you can watch it on her archives (access it via the quilt cam tab at the top of her blog) at a later time or check for it on YouTube. It will appear approximately 2 hours after she finishes the live session.

    Hi all.

    I am so excited. This will be my first mystery quilt, though I have followed Bonnie's blog since before Orca Bay...

    Placed an order for my fabric, which will be around 60% stash and 40% news, because I am cronic low on yellow.
    Two hours until quilt cam.

    So I am on her blog page and fb page looking for the quiltcam how to start notice (how to access it) but don't see it anywhere. It is 1:35 est. Where do I look, please? I do see her message that it is coming at the bottom of today's post. When I click on the quiltcam link, it doesn't say anything about how to watch it. I see the list of past quiltcams. Does it just start automatically on the quiltcam link? http://quiltville.blogspot.com/p/live-quiltcam.html
