Funny part was, I actually found 17 colors, and can't count obviously, because I bought enough of each to make the quilt. I now have enough of the extra one to make the binding match the front, so no harm, no foul. I hope to make it sometime this coming year, after several other projects are done first! I would love to have input from you all, on what you think.

Your bottom pic. of fabric is the same as I have. I was able to get 18 different colors of that same pattern. I got them when one of our WM clearance them for a dollar a yd. I am still trying to decide what to make with it.

I think the fabric is really great. I can't wait to see the quilt. I am pretty sure it will be fantastic.

Good luck on Whittling down your UFO's so we can all see this new quilt finished. It will be an eye catcher for sure!

That is going to come out just smashing I am sure.

I can't believe you found the 15 colours of the same pattern. That must have been a job in itself!
