Yes--do share how you did that faster--I've stalled out with other projects stepping in. But love the look with pastels--I went with the ones Bonnie showed--part of my decision to do it was that I had scraps for all the colors except enough orange.

Very sweet, gentle, color choices. you did a good job, as usual.

Oh wow, just beautiful! I did mine in Bonnie's colors, I find it hard to choose other colors when it is a mystery. I'm about 1/3 done quilting mine on my DSM! I've done her last four mysteries, and they have all turned out beautiful.

Just beautiful! Love the soft colors and the quilting makes it stand out. I always say pics do not do justice when one can see it in person and I am more than sure that this is one to cozy up to. Great job!

I didn't find a faster way....I just did them the way she showed us. I made the king size and it took forever and a day...well it felt that way anyway. LOL

I have done a few of her mysteries as well. I love her quilts. I own most of her books. :) I know it's always a risk to change the colors...but I just went with what I had and I am pleased with the result. the worst that could happen is that I would have had a blended quilt......all of that work for nothing. LOL
