I chose my fabrics. I am going to use my tiny print blue fabrics! Some of you who sent me fabric scraps you may see some in the photo. 

My favorite blues are these three. I only have a little piece of the top two prints and I have yards of the blue and white floral one on the bottom.

I love all the details in the prints. Yes, I am going to add prints with colors too.

These prints have a little yellow, pink, green, and even a bit of red.

I choose lites, mediums, and darks of the blue prints.  That will give my quilt a nice contrast between the fabrics for creating the quilt blocks.

The nice part about creating my quilt with scrappy fabrics is I won't run out.  I can always add more prints, as long as they are similar.

Join in the fun and participate in the Quilt Along.

Hodgepodge Patchwork Tuesday from now til the end of April will be updates on my blocks for the Quilt Along.  I will share my progress each week.

Enjoy your day!
