these would be 15 I'd choose.

I really, really wanted to make a collage of these (like everyone else is doing here, and here, and here) but after spending hours - seriously, hours! - on trying to get Picasa to play nice with Google+ I just gave up. It's ridiculous that I can't collage these images since in December I had no problem making several collages with camera photos.
UPDATE: My thanks to Laura who put out this challenge. She commented to suggest I try making a collage in Mosaicmaker. It worked! Thank you, Laura!
The challenge put out by Laura at QuokkaQuilts is to go to the Fat Quarter Shop and choose 12 prints and 3 solids that you would like to see in a fabric bundle. The ones I picked, that you see above are:
Grand Bazaar Breeze Dancing Dragonflies by Patty Young for Michael Miller
Heirloom Dandelion Opal by Joel Dewberry for Free Spirit
Mimosa Orange Chevron by Dear Stella Fabrics
Bright Owl Blue Stripe by Alice Kennedy for Timeless Treasures
Orange Crush Punch Large Stripe by Alice Kennedy for Timeless Treasures
Treasures and Tidbits Marigold Circle Dots by Piece 'O Cake Designs for Robert Kaufman Fabric
Bright Owl Blue Star Doodles by Alice Kennedy for Timeless Treasures
Kaffe Classics Cantaloupe Aboriginal Dots by Westminster Fibers
Going Coastal Green Sand Dollar by Emily Herrick for Michael Miller Fabrics
Girls World Vibe Sky Anastasia by Jennifer Paganelli for Free Spirit Fabrics
Flora Leaf Feathers by Lauren and Jessi Jung for Moda Fabrics
Orange Crush Lemon Waves by Alice Kennedy for Timeless Treasures
and Kona Solids in White, Grass Green and Zucchini
The two green solids were the most difficult to pick. I really don't trust the colors I'm seeing on my computer screen.But did you notice that I picked up on the 2012 trendy color of the year - Tangerine Tango? At least it's an orange approximation of it.

Great selection of fabrics. Yay for the year of Tangerine Tango!
I love your choices!
Oh seriously?! That contest is too fun!
But anyway, LOVE your choices! What a fresh color palette (oh, you are so trendy) AND the patterns complement each other well too. Good job!
I hope you win that bundle, I'd love to see the quilt you'd make!
Oh, how fun! Whatever magic you used to put this together looks great...love your choices! I also like that you went back to having your post show up complete on my Reader without having to click on it.
Nice choices - shame about the collage. Did you try mosaicmaker? :) I'm just thinking that with close to 300 entries, the judges are going to look at the linky pic rather than click through to all. If you manage it with the mosaic maker, let me know and I'll delete your link so you can resubmit. Wouldn't want you to miss out!
