| I decided on these colors for this quilt. I hope to keep up, but my record isn't the best. I will do my darnedest. I will probably leave out some of the more colorful blacks then add some plainer ones, and as someone suggested the lightest orange will be out of there, also a few more oranges added. I appreciate the opinions and suggestions, I was leaning heavily toward the creams and whites, but DH loves black in quilts and his vote swayed things, lol. I still haven't decided which colors will correspond to which of Bonnie's. Also, I live on the other side of the country, about 45 minutes from Sea World and Shamu, so I may have to think of a different name for mine.
PS Oops, I didn't have a finish for October and maybe not this month, so I didn't make my goal of a finish a month. I think I did pretty well though, as I did finish 17 quilts so far. If I get going and put the Orca Bay off until after Thanksgiving, I might be able to finish my Iowa (Carolina) Christmas by the end of November. What to do, what to do. Hopefully, my indecisiveness won't turn into inactivity, lol.

Gorgeous colours Candace. No Bonnie Hunter for me as I have too much on my plate already but I will enjoy watching - maybe next year. 17 quilts is not a bad tally! Happy sewing!
A gorgeous selection of fabrics - should be a really great quilt!

You can always print out the steps and start it after you finish the other quilt. I'm printing them out I still have to finish last years mystery. Think I'll work on that one tomorrow. Like your colors. I'm going to try and follow your example and do a quilt a month next year. We'll see if I can do as well as you did this year.
I'm not doing the Bonnie Hunter mystery yet either. I also have too much on my plate. In fact, I can't even see my plate anymore! I am trying to finish several things this year. I think I'll be making a goal like yours next year. It didn't happen this year. I have several quilts together with backing and batting to quilt but finding the time is my problem now. Good luck with the new mystery or whatever you decide. I never stayed caught up when I did her mysteries but I sure liked doing them....
P.S. I'm having a giveaway on my blog, come by and comment so you can be entered into the giveaway.
Happy Thanksgiving.
Lovely selection of fabrics - you are sure to end up with a gorgeous quilt!
