May I help you in your struggle? LOL In the last picture I love the yellow/gold and the two mates to the left work fine with it. Since its your find I guess I will let you choose the fourth fabric. (But I think the almond in the second picture matches very well!) :p Hey, don't mind me... just kidding and getting a little stir crazy waiting on Irma!

Thanks Ladies for your heartfelt messages. lol Life can be so hard sometimes. These really are some great fabrics. I was gonna go with some black,grays and a multi color to go with my kitchen. It is a light silvery gray with white cupboards. So I am free to go with about anything. Hope your all still safe, your in my prayers.

Blessing and prayers to all of our Florida members in the path of Irma. I hope your damage is very little. I've been watching the storm track for over a week. Sending lots and lots of quilting hugs.

I have not not found my fabric yet, still looking. So many choices. I like everyone's choices so far. [ATTACH=CONFIG]580329[/ATTACH]Here is a pic of our new kitten we got yesterday. She is unnamed at this time. We are waiting to see how her personality comes out. So far she is a people cat. She likes to be with people.

Love your black kitten. My daughter recently acquired a black kitten. He is a great cat. She named him Clawed Monet. Have you picked out a name?

From that pic I might call her Snuggles.

Lawson - Great looking fabrics! Have fun sorting it out and using it!

Happylab - what a darling kitten! I'm sure you will come up with a great name soon!

Here is the fabric that I found for this Train Ride. Hopefully it will work well!

Colors on the pix are not true, they are rose and pinks, not orange. I'm even less of an orange person than a pink person, but this is what I had. And I made it to donate to my guild's small quilt auction, we raise money to buy the batting for our charity quilts.

I too thought they were shades of orange and almost fell out of my chair when I saw the pink D. That sure would be some focus that way, lol. But then I stopped to think for a minute and remembered, this is Judy, it will be wonderful no matter what. So now I know its pinks, I'm sitting comfortable again.
