    Welcome to all the new riders on the train. I love the pretty fabrics. It's always so much fun to see the same pattern worked up in different fabrics. Lots of different ones this time too. Where is Lynnie with her Chocolate Wine?

    Love the new fabric choices! YAY! More joining the train. Just Jan, your room is very elegant. I love blue and white.
    Yes, where is Lynnie? I hope she's not stuck in the snow! Oranges in the club car for anyone who needs some Vitamin C. :-)

    Jan -- lovely room. Yes, you definitely need to make two quilts so you'll have one to match your room.
    Delphina -- welcome aboard. Love the middle fabric -- it's so feminine.

    I just put some dark chocolate truffles in the club car along with a nice Shiraz. I think chocolate and red wine go together so well. And I too wonder where Lynnie is with her chocolate wine.

    Mary and coopah - yes, I've noticed, Lynnie is missing, and Dotty isn't on the train either.

    Here's another option this time using blue. My least favorite part of quilting is fabric selection. So any opinions gladly and graciously accepted. LOL

    Alva -- they look good to me, but I also have trouble picking out fabrics for a mystery quilt. But you know what? I always love how they end up even if the fabrics aren't my favourites to begin with.

    I'm trying my initial choice with a stronger orange. Hopefully this will have more contrast with the yellow than my first choice. I'm also going to do one in blues. Although both of these will be charity quilts, it will be nice to work with my favourite colours as well as my "non-favourite".

    Oops! Pics came out really large but trying to change them smaller didn't work. Sorry.

    Judy I sent Lynnie a pm to remind her, she is without a machine right now. : sew: She's going to follow and try to catch up when she gets a new machine.

    alva I think you will be fine with these

    Belfry I like your blues in the bottom picture ... but ... wondering if you want to wait until Saturday to decide on the top selection.
