I've been leaning towards the blue but I'd kind of like to try the dark background and solids. I've got myself on a pretty strict fabric diet but I may have to cheat a little. If the site wide 20% off is still good I just may go for it.

joe'smom, I love your floral.

SheriR, are the numbers on your cards the Sherman Williams numbers?

I am looking forward to finding the Kona Cotton, Moda solids, and embroidery floss equivalents for the colors. It makes it easy to carry the floss to find more fabric!

I have never done one of one mysteries but this may be the year. I love the colors and everyone always seems to have so much fun doing them. Plus they are gorgeous quilts!

They're a lot of fun and you always learn something.

I pulled fabric this morning from the stash and it looks like I have enough except for possibly the green. I'll need to organize them a little better and then take a pic to post. I have an abundance of yellows. Shows how much I love bright colors! LOL

Thank-you for posting this site. I usually like to follow along with her mysteries. I guess this week I will go through my stash and shop for missing fabric. This year I can actually follow along. No traveling or medical issues to slow me down this year. I'm leaning toward, blues, green, and purple, with browns and tans. I was really excited a few weeks ago when I noted she had visited France this year. I had a gut feeling I would like her colors. And I do.

Someone over on Bonnie's facebook group (Quiltville Open Studio) posted the DMC embroidery floss equivalent colors for her selected paint colors:

#335 - magenta
#327 - dark purple
#210 - light purple
#743 - yellow
#987 - green

Hope this helps.
