Latifah Saafir Mystery Quilt

As mentioned, we are all about starting projects here at AQ!

Yes, I am doing the Latifah Saafir Mystery quilt. My time has not become more free, but I am doing it anyway. It uses the HuRTy and this is a good way to get the tool into my bag of tricks.

It is a little unclear to me whether you can still join, but here is a link and you might be able to navigate your way from there.

Latifah is at H&H in Chicago (whatever that is!), so participants have a little time. I have two selections of fabric that I am contemplating. The quilt needs 7 fabrics including a contrasting background.

Fabric Pull - Guicy Guice

First, is all fabrics that I bought recently.

Most of them are from Guicy Guice, but there are a few from Alison Glass and that white is Seasons from Figo fabrics.

This is mostly cool colors, which should come as no surprise. I am not sure if there is enough contrast, but I like all the fabrics, so I am willing to go with it.

Coneflowers & Chrysanthemum Fabric Pull

The second option is an old fabric pull for which I am still seeking a project.

I still really like this group of fabrics. I am just not sure if pointy HRTs would work with the Coneflowers & Chrysanthemums.

I do feel like there is something missing and I can’t quite figure out what. Dots, maybe?

  1. I looked at your fabric pull in black and white and I think there’s a good balance between the light background and mediums and darks. Maybe add in a light green that’s close to the green in the green/blue fabric second from the right?
