I am not at home right now so I can not take a picture. I have a whole dresser drawer filled with Kaffe and Tula fabrics, mostly fat quarters but some scraps. (My "studio" is a bedroom with the machines in a large walk in closet.) I am looking forward to this project.
I knew Barbara would come up with a way to do machine piecing instead of all hand work.

I took a photo of the new fabrics that I've picked up in the past month or so as well as my cabinet showing all the batiks that I already have tucked away. The 3 light pieces on the new fabric photo at the bottom are what I'm planning on using for the pale blocks in the new BOM. I was too lazy to move my serger out of the way of the cabinet so I took the photos through the glass which was probably not the best way to do it. I didn't realize that the cabinet on the other side of the room and an envelope with a pattern inside would show up like ghosts on the glass. I always thought I had lots of blues but when I started putting fabric in the cabinet it turned out I had more greens than anything else. I'm pretty sure I have more fabric in a pile somewhere from a couple quilts I did with Ricky Tims that never made it back to the cabinet. I'll have to dig those out as well.

Yes, they will work. Supplement with a few solids to calm things down a bit.

I got these African prints from a lady that was clearing out her stash. I'm wondering whether or not these would work for thePick a Petal project? Any advice, Barbara or fellow quilters?

These are mostly Alison Glass fabrics from fat quarter bundles I ordered online. Need to do some filling in. I have a fat quarter bundle of Moda Bella solids coming, but thinking I want prints. Thoughts? Best part for all these fabrics is I had gift cards so I only have $11 for shipping out of pocket thus far.
Anxious to start my first pieced quilt! Planning to do as much hand piecing and applique as I can. Still not comfortable with my machine.
My World...Home pictured. Once again. Whoo hoo to you!!!
Love your Alison Glass fabrics. I bought a bunch of her Perle Cotton #8 Eleganza for this year Homeward Bound. I also found
a new way to store my DMC floss on their plastic bows and the page holders can be put in a notebook. I can use all the
organizing tools I can get. Wish my fabrics were as organized as my threads. Really looking forward to learning a lot this
next year. I am planning on trying to Big Stitch quilt my current Homeward Bound After Dark. I am hoping I just love the
hand stitching. HelenW

This is a beautiful palette Carole. More light fabrics for the log cabins will help. And a few busier prints will add pizazz.
You will love the hand piecing of this quilt.

What a gorgeous palette! I love everything about these colors. Currently I am in love with his Dit Dots and have a quilt I have to get made using them for a new class.

Here are my wildly beautiful Jason Yenter fabrics. I have done several of his quilts and love, love, love his color palettes.
Now to decide on a background white, or grey or blacks tone on tone. They would probably all look good. Can't wait
for Jan. 1, 2024. HelenW
