I like C the best but think you used D. Judy would this pattern be suitable for a baby quilt. I need a baby quilt for my grandson due end of April so if I could make this quilt for him it would be killing two birds with one stone.

Canny, yes, this would be perfect for a baby quilt, just make sure the prints are small. Like I mentioned, it will finish at 48" long without sash and border, so if, when finished, you think it is too big, you can leave off one row, and make a pillow or wall hanging to match the quilt.

I like the C group and think it's the one that you used. It looks like Spring!!

Most of my fabric is stored off site, so once it warms up a bit I'll head over and pull some.
I like B the best, but am guessing you used C.

Judy -- love your new avatar. Does the center block have a name?

Here are my fabric choices along with a part of a block where I have used these 3 fabrics:

If I need to change out my blue solid, please let me know.

My amazing son has finished his MFA in Boston, traveled to Vietnam as a Visiting Scholar, returned to NYC and packed up for a move to Oakland, Ca. Along the way, he got a teaching offer, in Hong Kong! Back in Oakland, he is finishing his novel and driving for Uber. And looking for an apartment. I will look for masculine-ish fabric and make this wall hanging
for him. With a wish for affordable rent and a secure lease!! Thanks Judy!!

It was a free pattern from Moda called Double Windmill and was done with light and dark solid blue, and white. I am a scrappy person, so that is what I did. Each block in the quilt had a different light background, and I sashed the blocks to make them stand out.
this is the first one I mad,e kind of blah, so I went all scrappy but forgot to take a pix of it.

I like B best, but I think you will use D. Thanks for the new mystery. Quilting on the border of mystery # 14. Finished # 15 (table runner) in early December. Looking forward to this one.

Thanks for the invite Judy ~ I may be being pulled into it already; I can see that you have lots of fun with it. What do you think of this combo? Are the prints too large?
I think you will go with B and that is my favorite too - especially the lightest one.
