I decided on using the beautiful pack of fabrics that Mari sent me...
I also added some of my Xmas bargain shopping from spotlight. The lighter fabric has snowflakes on it. This will be used as my background...
Here is the story of how I got the fabric

Lol - you are as bad as me - I have just decided to do a BOM with 3 sewing friends this year!! Your blocks are looking sweet!
NO !! I'm staying strong for now even though your blocks look great....
This is going to be a spectacular quilt!
busy, busy, busy! Love the blues and browns together, a really lovely pack!
You are such a busy beaver!!! The blocks look great, nice fabric you are using too.
Whew. When I started reading I thought you found a QA that I would probably have to join too. Like I said, whew. It's one I'm already doing. So glad we're sewing "together". LOVE your fabrics.
Looks like fun and tempting too.
Love your fabrics and patterns looks like so much fun :)
You are on a roll Jo love your fabrics I need to finish off some projects
This is going to be lovely, the fabrics are so pretty together. love blues and browns.
Pretty colour combinations, Jo. I went to Spotlight yesterday and bought three fabrics, yardage in case I get as far as making my scrap blocks into quilts. Your blocks are looking great.
Such a beautiful colour palette...very pretty indeed
And... I've just downloaded the blocks for the Solstice Challenge. Am tossing up between an old fashioned look or a modern black/white look - just not sure.....
