GramE, you're too funny this morning!!! lol lol lol I like your magenta, and those dark and light purple swirls are sooo cool.
Nice 4 patches everyone.
Mine are done, but I'm not doing a full set. I'm going to try something different w/ this years mystery if it doesn't work I always can go back and make more sets.

I like the way you break the rules. I'm the obedient child. ❤️

Connie, love your neutrals. She said they would make a "bold statement" in the quilt, so I think you are on the right track.
I'm doing this with a lady in my local quilting group. It's her first, too. She is a genius with scrappy color, but is totally afraid of scrappy neutrals. It's something you have to work up to, and some people will never like it. I do, tho! The wilder, the more interesting, to me.

I'm w/ you GramE, scrappy isn't in my wheel house. I have seen controlled scrappy that I don't mind, and orphan or sampler (or swap) quilts I like but like even more when there is some "order" established that I can latch on to or some constant tying it together. I have been saving scraps and hope I can bring myself to do something w/ them.

Everyone's 4-patches look so nice! I finished mine yesterday. I did the two-toned neutral, but for me it's still scrappy, as the fabric was scraps
