    I'm having trouble making fabric choices. I've boiled it down to three:

    I like the third choice best with the hot pink and lavender.

    The third . The orange seems to clash in the other, and brown and red too closer in first.

    Thanks, everyone. I think I'll go with the pink as I really don't like orange. Anyone else doing this?
    Karen - Yes, she keeps the pattern posted after the mystery -- you can still get the last three years on the site.

    I'm not doing this one, but you have reminded me of one I started a few (or more) years ago. What I should do is get it out and finish it. Sounds like a plan.

    I found a pink that is a shade lighter than the one pictured, so decided to go with that. I have all the pieces cut out with a LOT of fabric left over, so I gather we'll be doing quite a bit more cutting next weekend.
