My good friend Pat over at
Silver Thimble is starting another mystery quilt. ( I shouldn't even think about starting it since I haven't finished the last one, but I am) We got the first mystery clue on Friday night. This one listed the yardage and the first cutting instructions. I really want to do this, but I don't want to buy more fabric. The clue calls for two fabrics or two color ways, one being a constant, with each fabric or color way needed a total of 5 yards. Looking through my stash I found two combinations that I could live with. The first is red and yellow, the second is pink and brown. The clue also calls for colors with high contrast. I could do the solid brown and scrap up the pink, I have lots of pink in my stash. If I decide to go with the red and yellow, it will just be those two colors. What do you think?
