These are Bonnie's colors plus neutrals.
She has DARK PURPLE, LIGHT PURPLE, GREEN, YELLOW, BRIGHT PINK and NEUTRALS.
I have chosen to change the colors a little this year. I'm going with beach colors.
My neutrals are all creamy without too many contrasting distractions.
This is my white sandy beach.
Instead of YELLOW I am using tan for all the glorious shades of wet sand where waves wash ashore.
Instead of DARK PURPLE I am using brown for all the palm tree trunks and beach huts.
Instead of GREEN I'm using bright turquoise and rich blues for the deep sea.
Instead of LIGHT PURPLE I'm using light turquoise for the shallow waters and sunny skies.
And finally instead of BRIGHT PINK I'm using some palm tree greens. I haven't decided on just one so I might mix all of them in.
This is how they all play together.
First clue in progress.
I love 4-patch blocks and this will add sparkle to the quilt.
Lots more to sew......
