I am so in for this train ride again. I am leaving for PA on Thursday and will not be back until the 24th. I am hoping I will be able to pull my fabric before I leave, but if not I will catch up once I get home.

So glad to see all the new faces, welcome aboard and enjoy the ride.
Thanks, Sunlite but you forgot 7/8 of a yard -- 32"
for future reference
reeskylr, all your fabrice are fine. A-E works well. Swap out your reds if you want but I do like the B that you show.
purtercat - B and E ok, A C D too short. Remember, I told you there were only a few inches extra in the fabric requirements. Your A and E would be too close in color and scale so you might want to rethink some of this.
Thanks, dede, will do so.
Lawson, I love your fabrics, but have a concern on the white, I think it may be a bit too stark with the others you have chosen.
Ok, see you in the morning, the dog and I are fed and ready to hit the road. See you tomorrow.

Hey wait for me.
I want to come too. The last mystery I did I wasn't thrilled with I picked fabric with just written directions no visuals to help so I'm hoping do better this time. I have 2 options I'm thinking about and please thoughts and ideas are welcome. If you see something that's not going to work please let me know.
The first picture I have plenty of everything and can move fabrics to other locations if necessary.
The second picture I think is my favorite combination but I have to be careful as I only have 1 yard of the. A red and the C gold.
The white in both is the same wow dandelions.

Hope these will work. I can't buy any fabric right now, so I had to really do some stash-digging! The "C" fabric is darker in person ... it's deep fuschia and has more contrast in real life than it appears to have in my photo. The camera flash apparently washed it out.

Hmmm. I may swap "B" for a lighter fabric, if I can find something that'll work. It's not really growing on me. 
Edit: Okay, I swapped "B" out for a white tone-on-tone fabric. Much better.
