The second to last quilt for the book!  As I was trying to choose colors, I just couldn’t come up with anything.  It needed 4 purples — from a very light, almost whitish lavender to a deep purple.  My stash never seems to have enough purple and with some being reddish, some being blueish, some being pinkish, it’s real hard for me to get 4 of them that work together.  This is when I miss The Village Mercantile!  She has so much fabric, I could go there and get exactly what I needed, plus some! 

When I did find 4 purples that I thought would work, I was just a tad short on one of them.  The quilt was finalized in Electric Quilt but a couple of the purples were so similar, that I decided to swap one shade for something totally different so I could see how many of those pieces were in the quilt.  I swapped it for a bright green and suddenly my quilt had a whole new look and I love it!  It’s much prettier than the original color choices.  Here are the fabrics I’ll be using  . . only thing is . . I can’t decide which green.   Actually I think I’m going to go with something that isn’t even shown here but I already had the memory stick out of the camera so you don’t get to see that one.  But, I could change my mind . . that’s a woman’s right, you know?

I think this green doesn’t have enough “life” even though it is a Dimple fabric.

I kinda like this green.

This one might have too much design and stand out more so than the other tone on tone fabrics.

Don’t you think the 2nd one is the best choice out of these three greens?  I really should take a picture of the one I’m thinking of using.  Sometimes a picture helps me decide.
