Or how about the same colours in more traditional fabrics? These are remainders from my Dear Jane quilt, made up from Kim Diehl fabrics.
However, reading Bonnie's Introduction, it sounds like she has just chosen her favourite colours from a range of different Iris flowers. So why not choose your favourite colours too? There are only three colours and a neutral this year, which I think makes it much easier to improvise with your own colours.
Still deciding whether to take part, depending on my other workload.

Bonnie Hunter's Rhododendron 2021 Mystery Quilt - Introduction |
I have pulled out the colours from my stash and this is what I have found. I am already thinking of how I can mix it up. Last year it was lockdown and I will say that it was the perfect distraction to kill the hours we had to spend indoors in December and January. I am 50:50 on whether I am doing it this year, as it depends on how much work I have to do. All I know is that I will be able to spell Rhododendron by the end of it!
If you have never done a Mystery Quilt, why not give it a go!
