    DD, I have Rainbow Frost, Rainbow Jewels, Touch the Rainbow, Rainbow Forest, Rainbow Taffy, Rainbow Magic, Rainbow Bright, and Rainbow Confetti. And the pattern is call The Confetti Quilt to make up a couple of the packets into, at least originally. Packets are several years old, not new.

    I might try to work in about three or four packets, a more intense color with a lighter shade since there are 12 blocks. The dark pieces can work in where they need to be and I can 'play' with the lights the same way. Background will be a Kona Creme or Butter...letting the blocks shine on their own rights.

    My computer has not been playing nice today it kept kicking me out, is anyone trying to tell me something

    QuiltE, spoke to DD today and I "think" she is going to go with Mirab'sDD, that one is winning so far. I will see her on Saturday, we are going shopping (not for fabric either). I asked her to take a photo of her fabric cupboard as she is more anal than me. All her lengths are pressed and folded onto trouser hangers so she can hang 5 lengths, (this can be anything from 2 to 5 yards) on the same hanger and she has a lot of hangers

    Good name! Her anality is all good for you ... you can know that it's all prepped and ready, when you steal it away! Though she's probably only doing what she learned from HerDearOl'Ma!
