    I like this darker border fabric better than the small print floral. With the darker background, I think it goes better with the bright gradations fabrics. It's going to be another PittsburgPam masterpiece, I'm sure.

    Got all my fabric choices done and ordered. :-D

    Instead of trying to find yardage just of the Fusions I wanted, I ordered two jelly rolls that contain every color, 139 colors. I got Fusions Grass for the green border and Moda Marbles Charcoal for the black triangles (to throw something different in there instead of another Fusions).

    Considering that you won't get your order until maybe Tuesday next week, do you think you'll have it done by Wednesday?

    :lol: :lol: just kidding!

    You chose spectacular colors for this project and it will be beautiful!

    Well, if I get the Vintage quilt done by then I just might. :lol: :-P

    I hope it goes together in person since I've only seen them online. Should be able to use the exact colors I want with 139 Fusions colors to choose from.

    I've never seen this quilt being made, but I've seen several of them in person. It is amazing how different they all come out with different colors.

    You will shock us all if you complete this quilt top in one day! :shock:

    Gorgeous! What is the fabric line? Would like to find a nice floral with black background. Haven't look yet, though. I think I'd like one with red in it. You are going to have a beautiful finished quilt! Glad you found the coordinating floral.

    The fabric line has different tones called Vintage (what I got), Jewel, and Autumn. The Autumn ones have more red/orange rather than the magenta/pink.

    I could only find the framed floral AND the coordinating strips in Vintage or I might have got the Jewel ones for the colors.

    Here's the floral with black background in Autumn. Several places had it that I found in a google search.
