    Hi! I love your choice colors. The white flowers almost look real. And I love the red, it matches the color of the center of the flowers. Chris

    Sue that would really be so exciting if i know i manage to get a lot of quilters hunting down our website and buying from South Africa. We have AMAFU
    http://www.amafu.co.za/ - our Durban area
    this is our stunning hand dyes - these i use in every quilt i make and i use their material as my backing fabric. This mystery quilt will be the first time i am not using this fabric, but will use all my materials i purchased from DA GAMA
    http://www.shweshwe.net/products2.as...le=&frm_range=
    They bring out a new range of designs yearly or every second year. The fabrics i am using are from the Radiant Sunshine and Fudge range. They are the new patterns. STUNNING

    PLEASE ALL FEEL FREE TO HAVE A LOOK. Thanks for showing interest and good luck everyone with your mystery quilt. ;)

    Missy thank you very much for the advise.

    Material is all washed ironed and sitting on the table ready for stage 2 after Christmas. Gives me a chance to finish my pinwheel love blanket for myself before we begin.

    HAPPY CHRISTMAS TO EVERYONE ♥

    All I can say is WOW! I'm an instant fan of AMAFU fabrics. Such rich, vibrant color!

    If anyone needs me, I'll be at the airport trying to finagle a free ride to South Africa!

    Thank you, Cuddly, for the lovely box of eye candy!

    Missy hubby and i are arguing about the pinks. I have retaken the photo and put ABCD on the pinks, could you please let me know which letter is which Colour No. Sorry to do this to you. I have put the material in the order I THINK YOU MEANT. I should have done the alphabet in the beginning. Sorry to waste your precious time. Really do appreciate the extra mile you are going to US ALL.

    No problem! I don't mind. LOL too funny I can 'see' you bickering lovingly about what I meant. :) So to end the argument...C is the one I thought for the Background, and D is what I thought for the inner border. You have 10 fabrics and we need 9.. so the really pale light pink(B) is nice, but I think you may be happier with the 'bolder' colors. just my opinion. Take care and have a great day!

    Well shoot! Maybe we can fit in a flat rate box!? (uhhh no way at all.. but I can dream right!? ) although it will take 10 days to get there flatrate even!! well.. I guess it'd be a weightloss program right!? Heehee! I love those fabrics. I didn't see any pricing though. Did I miss it somewhere?
