Ready for a Mystery

 

You have probably heard rumblings about Bonnie Hunter's mystery quilt starting soon. I'm in!  I pieced along with last year's quilt and thoroughly enjoyed it.  This year Bonnie's inspiration is a sunset in Alaska.  She suggests three contrasting colours and light background neutrals.  She is using reds, blues and blacks along with with the light background neutrals. I am using my own inspiration.  A lovely older VIP print.
So, I will be using blues, burgundy, yellow and the light background neutrals. There will be string blocks and that makes me happy. Below is a pic of the fabrics I have ready to go.  Here's to hoping my choices work, but that is part of the mystery.  Scrappy quilts rule!!
