Below are the Merry Mayhem Mystery designer's choices for her quilt, left to right, A-G.
Using these as a guide I checked out my grey/black/neutrals in stash and found these candidates.Then I went by Arizona Home fabrics today and found these four to add to the growing list of choices.
That grey pin dot is a beauty, I purchased the "end of bolt". Two yards of the grey streaky one, one yard of the little flowered and the "end of bolt" of that luscious cream.
Then I headed over to visit with my longarm friend Gale this afternoon as she was down from CO. to her house in Surprise for a few days, and we collaberated on a final selection.
So here is what I have decided on, left to right A-G same order as the Merry Mayhem at top of the page. The grey pin dot will become A, my background fabric, B and C, the creams, are those light narrowest strips, and D and E will be the larger strips. F and G I believe are those darker cornerstons.
Below you see the final clue in this mystery -click here for the link. I am very excited to get going on this quilt- it seems like a very different departure for me into such modern lines and colors.
Perhaps I will yet become a thoroughly modern quilter-- but first I need to finish the other two mystery tops I have in progress!
I can't wait to see this one...I want to make it too, but so much to do!
ReplyDeleteI absolutely love the cream swirl (you describe as luscious cream). Could you please list the manufacturer and any other details?
DeleteThat luscious cream fabric is called "Ramblings" by P&B textiles. Hope you can find it, try typing it into your search engine.
DeleteHTH!
Thank you so much! I'm off to the fabric store tomorrow!
