    I picked up the cards last night and what beautiful colors. I am not a pink fan. Just leaving them out for a few days to let them grow on me.

    Quilt Cam sessions are a lot of fun to watch and participate in. Bonnie works on a project and explains what she is doing and how to do it. Even though it's not a class/lesson, you can pick up lots of tips on sewing and some of the products (i.e., rulers, scissor, lighting, etc.) that she uses in her basement studio. If you are watching it live, you can send her emails and make comments on her blog and she responds to them during the sessions. Some people send her photos of what they are working on or quilts from her patterns that they have made. I always learn something new while watching Quilt Cam. She will post the date and time on her blog at Quiltville.com so you can plan to watch it live or you can watch an archived copy of it on Goggle and/or YouTube any time afterwards. When she posts the next session date/time, I'll post it here on this thread.

    All except the yellow... she said the yellow would be only one fabric, a "constant" in the quilt. All the other colors will be scrappy. So choose your yellow wisely!

    I will be doing this one also. My colors have been pulled from stash but I am rather short on pinks and neutrals. Drat! I will have to go to the LQS and pass Lowes on the way.

    Thank you so much for posting the link. I have always wanted to do one of her mystery quilts but never seemed to get the information on it until it was over. I definitely want to try this one!

    I went and got my color cards yesterday. This will be a first for me and I'm going to try to make it out of just my stash. God knows, I have enough stash for each of us to make a quilt! Now the wait. . . hummm

    Thanks Pagzz, just watched 20 minutes of it and I got that Bonnie wants you to watch, listen while your doing something in your quilt room. Will watch the rest later, going to see "Nunsense"with my Red Hat group so have to get ready. Text later. Marie

    Nice fabrics, Caroline. Don't have my chips yet so can't go through my vast amount of fabrics, but soon. I'm in the process of moving my sewing room so will find much that I don't even know I have, should be fun.
