fabric selection #2
Here is updated pictures using hints that were given this am. Thank you everyone who has commented. So far its about even. 08:00
can't help, I don't understand the constants :) She choose red and green in addition to her pink/green/brown + neutrals. Maybe it's just that I think of red and green being christmas themed. We'll know soon, glad to share the journey with you!
However...I don't know how the blue will look in that position in the actual quilt. I like how it plays with the other colors, though, so I'll take the chance.
I guess I'm saying that the pink is a "safer" choice, being closer to Bonnie's, but the blue would be more adventurous!
I like the blue too, for the contrast. I don't think you will need to absolutely decide until Bonnie uses this constant. Remember Orange Crush? She did not introduce that color until late in the game. Try a block or two with each and see when we get there! How fun is this?!!

I like the blue - definite contrast
I prefer the pink as it will give a more consistent look to your quilt. Bonnie's constant is a variant of one of her colors (red/pink).
Of course, all the Quiltville mysteries are wonderful, in whatever fabrics you pick.

I like the blue. I'm using those same colors.

I found a fellow Okie!
I haven't even pulled my fabric for this as I want to wait and play it safe until a few of you all get started!
