    You & I were thinking sort of along the same lines (not for the first time...haha!!). But I think the truth is that you need each of the orange prints to make the other orange prints look like they belong. And then there's the orange IN the other pink or blue or green prints...it just seems like if you start pulling, you're going to be pulling until the pile is gone...LOL!! Enjoy the color variation and this gorgeous fabric line!

    I don't know what some of you guys are seeing. There is no black or dark colors. It's all water colors. Hummm

    Like Joan said. I missed your post

    If you HAVE to pull one I would pull the medium blue flowers on the blue background. (Third in the bottom row). I think that the blue is heavier than any of the rest of the colours, so would lose one blue.

    That might be a good idea. There are seven blues, three strips of each.

    This seemed so simple when I started.

    I came home from the retreat with some of these strips, from playing strips dice with Snippet and the girls.

    It's a beautiful line, and I would not get rid of any of the blues for sure... I'm not into orange, but still the whole line is just so pretty. Love to see the quilt when you are ready to show it.

    I'd probably remove one of the blue (background) strips since there are more blue than all the other colors. I wouldn't eliminate the blue flowers with the white background since there apear to be only three white strips in the bundle.
