Oh my goodness - I have no idea. I carefully chose six shades of cream for the background, and six shades of dark blue for the star points. The rest (all medium in value) were tossed on the floor and I use the very scientific method of going up three steps and looking down at the pile on the floor to choose. "Needs a little more pink- Ok, I will see what I have in the pink stash. Take some of those browns out of the mix...they aren't sunny enough". I know how many triangles I need, but how many of each color. The more the better in this project.

That will be a stunning quilt. Isn't it fun to go through older quilt magazines and update the fabrics.
