Rainbow of Fruit Flavors....

That title is probably trademarked, but I can't remember by whom.....I feel like it is cereal, but who knows?

Anyway, it seemed appropriate considering what I am working on today...

Yesterday, I finished the left leaves....now affectionately known as the bat wings (thanks Kelly and Shawn)....

Behind it you will see the work for today....the right side leaves, are rainbows....kinda. Each leaf is it's own colorway, but travels from light to dark, similar to the left leaves. They never get really light, but there is a definite color shift. Of course, I have some "made-up" colors....since pink and teal aren't technically in the rainbow....my rainbow goes like this ..

ROYGBIV - Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, purple, pink, Teal

So, definitely not scientifically correct...

I made some changes to the papers, in terms of colors to make it work out the way I want....

Nothing major...but necessary to make it flow the way I wanted....

Here's the piles of cut pieces, ready to sew in order...

And a quick look at the fabrics...

There are 8 leaves, with 5 fabrics each, for a total of 40 colored fabrics in this quilt so far, and 5 from the "bat wings". So, definitely fabric selection heavy....

Now, off to grab some lunch before I get started, you gotta be fueled for this!
