I've decided to use my FQ bundle of Key West by Di Ford for Harriet's Journey. These are very muted blue-greens with a touch of pink (the fabrics looked so much brighter and prettier on line then they do in reality; I sometimes wonder how much of my stash I would have, had I encountered the fabrics in person). It seems like this limited palette might be less intimidating to work with than a many-colored one for my first sampler. I happened upon a Barnes and Noble preview of the book, so I was able to see the fabric requirements, and pulled a bunch from my stash to go along with the FQs. I'm very excited about this project! I looked on line at samplers last night, to get an idea of what I like for setting, sashing, cornerstones, etc.
