I really meant to make Bonnie Hunter's Chilhowie Mystery Quilt when it first came out, but at the time I was working on several Rainbow Scrap Challenge projects. But I've had it in my project queue since then.
I'm finally in the mood to make another quilt, so I'm thinking about making a throw-size Chilhowie in colors that coordinate with our living room. I dug through my stash and found these fabrics that match pretty well. I may replace that dark rust with a brown, as I ordered a brown batik when I ordered more of that quilt backing.
Now I'm trying to figure out the arrangement of colors in the quilt. It seems like it would be a straight-forward substitution, but when I put these fabric colors into Electric Quilt I worry the colors are too dark.
Then I started substituting some lighter fabrics. Perhaps I'm overthinking it, but here are some of the other options I've come up with.
I'll probably make my final decision when my brown fabric arrives. When you order online, you can never be sure what the color actually is until you get the fabric.
