I am, I'm brought a bunch of complimentary fabrics and will do the entire year so they match (I'm mostly a matchy-match quilter with a few scrappies thrown in :) ).

I am going to try and use one fabric that is the same in all blocks if possible, but I vowed I wouldn't buy anything for this quilt.

It may not be possible but that is my goal.

I'm going to try to keep to the same colorways so that in the end they'll all coordinate....hopefully :)

I'm trying to do 2 BOM's One I'm using all the same fabrics; other I'm going through scraps and am keeping the same backgrounds throughout. So far like my scrappy ones the best

:lol:

I'm using fabrics from my stash too.

I'm going scrappy to use up some of my little pieces. The backgrounds will all be different. Hope in the end it will all turn out nice. So far, the blocks looks really nice.
