Here are some of my fabrics. What other colors do you think?
I also have a lime green to use.
I have enough of the black flowers, blue and pink to do the 4 1/2 yds. sections - Which should I use?
Which focus should you use? Focus wise, I would let the daughter use the flowers with the cats and you use the cats. Or which colors do you think you should use? Blues,greens,yellows,purples,browns a black and keep the baby floral it's cute!! You can use almost any of those and you can pick a color you would like to see more, ie the blue.. pick a shade darker/lighter and use it in there too! That quilt will be amazing.. I have to say EVERYONE's quilt will be the choices you have all made are totally awesome!! You guys are doing a great job! (yeah Lori.. I know I had you change a few things.. LOL Just teasing you!!) Hugs for everyone and we have 2 more days til clue #1~ IS anyone excited!? :)

Thanks, saw it at JoAnns and had to have it. got the panel as well. dont know what Im going to do with it yet but it was so pretty Ihad to have it. i love the rich colors in it. I hate to cut it. LOL but Im glad I have the list as guidance so hopefully I wont screw it up.
The Cashier said that they had just gotten it in yesterday and the bolts I had were more than half gone.
