Here are my fabrics so far.

I am doing this scrappy also. I have a background fabric that is neutral tan/cream roses. I'll have "rust-ish" roses with teals, grey/greens and multiples of everything in-between that I can find on my shelf. I started with a jellyroll I have and pulled fabrics in that color way. I picked my fabrics last night, but got done too late to photograph them. I'll do that tonight, if I can resist starting on the leaves and vine, lol. I also got the centerblock pattern onto my background fabric, so I can hardly wait to take the first stitch!

I'm back! I picked up 8 yards of a really nice tiny floral WOW. It's already in the wash.

Eileen, I dont think Margo sleep or eats She may log off long enough to make a tutorial and an AMAZING quilt occasionally but otherwise she must be sat on this website. Margo YOU ROCK!!!!

Yes, Yummy fabric, Eileen! One of the longarm quilters in my local groups sells Sew Batiks fabrics, and they all look wonderful! She gave each of us in the group a gift certificate for one yard -- oh boy!!

Geez, you're quick Margo. I didn't think anyone would be around this afternoon. I wish we could get a chat going for this project; set a time and sit and talk.

Yummy!!!

I've got 2 greens in the washer right now but you'll get the idea. These are a combination of batiks from Sew Batik, a couple of Stonehenge fabrics and several pieces I hand dyed in a class last June and have been waiting for the perfect project. Since it's going to be kind of scrappy, I don't have a focus fabric, I'm flying by the seat of my pants.

Sue, I love your fabric choices -- I don't think I'll make it to midnight -- I look for the first part in the morning.

Thnaks for all the kind comments on my fabric choices.

It feels like Christmas to me -- can hardly wait to get started.

Best wishes for the new year.

They are yummy Sue!! You are going to love this project!

I have just finished ironing my background fabric. I'm all set to go. I'm using Sue's colors and will be doing a ruffled roses center block. I'm using my stash and found suitable fabric for all but a couple of the greens. My son picked those up for me when he picked up my grandson for the holidays. I'm going to do needle turn and by the looks of the vines and hearts picture that Margo put up, that part will be cutaway appique. This is actually my second applique project and I'm very excited to start. Will keep checking after midnight to see when the first part is up.
Here are my fabrics.

Judy,
I love your colors,they look so classic.

Judy -- your colors are wonderful. I can hardly wait to see all the Ruffled Roses varieties -- which if you think of it -- roses come in over 6500 varieties. 2011 is sure to become a wonderful garden.

Hi Judy, I love your colors!! And your focus fabric is marvelous! Yours will be a cheerful quilt! I look forward to seeing it develop!
Best wishes, Robin
