I tried out my idea using the bow tie dies. I still can’t decide if I love it or not.

So I tried this die.

Hmmmm….maybe.

This is my starting point. There are twenty different colors in this bundle.

They included this awesome chart in the package to help keep track.

I originally wanted to do Michigan and Arizona in one quilt, but realized I wouldn’t need to add any colors if I just did highs and lows for one state. Since it has been a record year in AZ, that’s what I’m going to focus on.

If I run out of a color, I can order more fabric , but I’d rather not have to. So I’m trying to use a pattern with small pieces.

I think I’ll keep looking, but I feel much closer to actually starting now.

Have a great day!
