Crazy Lady

113 down and 111 left to go if my math is correct.   WooHoo, I'm over half way there.  I was looking at all the pretty combinations on Bonnie's Linky, and have decided that I'm the Orca Bay crazy lady.  My colors are surely the wildest of the bunch, orange, black, purple and blue, and my scrappy is among the scrappiest.  Last mystery I went with Bonnie's colors, and I love my Roll Roll Cotton Boll, but this year I'm definitely out of the box, lol.   I haven't seen an ugly Bonnie quilt, and so I have confidence.   
If you want to see more progress go to Bonnie's Linky here.

you are the wildest by far -- so far....but I suspect it will be stunning. Can't wait to follow your progress.

Crazy? Nope! Your quilt is going to be gorgeous. These are the kind of blocks I wish I had the nerve to make.

I am really looking forward to watching how yours turns out. I almost never follow Bonnie's colors and I still love all the mysteries I've done. Yours will be smashing!

playing it safe can be so boring! I love wild and I suspect I will love your quilt - keep going!

I love your colors. I have never seen a fall quilt that I did not like.

Candace, I used black, oranges and teals for my RRCB, and I'm so glad I did! Good for you to try something "out there". You won't be sorry!

I love the colors you are going to use. I don't think you are crazy, but very brave and artistic.

I love a person who takes chances with colors! Mine are greens, pinks and purples. Can't wait to see yours finished!

Love your colors and you are not the only crazy. I am also planning to use black for my neutral with purple, orange and turquoise. My fabric is in the wash right now so hopefully I can get started tomorrow.
