For non-scrappy, I need to use the same two fabrics that I used for my HSTs on the first clue, correct? Sorry for all the questions, but for some reason, my brain isn't processing well!

Thanks, Judy.

Angelia, for non-scrappy, use your neutral or light background that was used with the HST and for the 4-patch use a fabric that will contrast with the darker fabric in the HST. Clear as mud? Sorry. Guess I didn't explain very well. If you used a medium in the HST, use a lighter in the 4-patch - but the light needs to have contrast with the neutral.

Chasezzz loving your colors. This will be such a happy quilt.

JanieW I really don't have a decisive answer to your question.Either way will totally change the look of the quilt. I am tempted to suggest turquoise/white for the 4-patch. And don't forget, you still need something for the last clue for sashing.

AngeliaNR

I started with three fabrics--light, medium, and dark. My HSTs are light + medium. My 4-patches should be light + dark? (I can bring in a darker dark later, if necessary.)

paintmejudy

Yes, this is good. The darker dark for later will be good. By the way, are you still aiming for that football field?

AngeliaNR

Maybe half of one!

paintmejudy

LOL you go, girl!!

Thanks, Judy, I’ll go with turquoise. No idea what I’ll use for the last clue . Something will turn up.

Judy I waited for your reply before cutting. Now I'll consult with my sister who's quilt this will be. But another question. I'm doing yardage. I need 4 fabrics neutral, light, medium and dark. have I got that right? thanks.
