Grand Illusion - Bonnie Hunter Mystery Quilt 2014 - Introduction

Fabric Selection - Grand Illusion Mystery Quilt 2014

It's that time again - Bonnie Hunter has launched her annual Mystery Quilt for 2014 - Grand Illusion.  She launched it way back in mid-October and caught me off-guard and it hasn't been until now that I have had the chance to put my mind to it.
 
This year I have decided to NOT do scrappy.  I need to make a quilt / pair of quilts in a particular colour scheme using warm greys and soft blues, so I have opted to use the mystery quilt as the pattern using the above fabrics.   It took a while to get to that decision - I should have taken a picture of my workroom - it was covered in fat quarters as I auditioned colours for the quilt. It's a mystery quilt, so I will be living on the edge to see if this colour scheme works.

The first part will be launched on Friday 28th November, only 10 days to go!

NB: Feb 2015 - This is as far as this one got, sadly I didn't get to join in for 2014, but only a few more months until 2015 is released!
