As soon as I saw this pattern I fell in love. I'm a bit of a hippy and major fan of the 60s/70s so it was a no-brainer to make it someday. To top it off, I've had a few yards of this print sitting in my stash (originally bought to make a skirt before I started quilting) and I decided it would make the PERFECT back for Groove.
I loooove the colours in it, so I grabbed my Kona colour card and decided on (from top) Azure, Willow, White, Chartreuse and Black. And my lovely parcel arrived today from the Fat Quarter Shop!
And you know, because I've got nothing else to do, I will be attempting to get it done before the end of the QAL. Yes. I definitely have a few screws loose :o)
Oh, and because I always have to fill my flat rate satchel to the brim, these half yards of Madrona Road text prints somehow jumped in too...
Wish me luck! No, really, I mean it (and Jen, you can stop laughing now!)

I love that backing fabric! Very fab and groovy indeed :)
I have been so tempted to join that one too! I have so much on though....I wish I could have some more hours in the day!
It's great to see that one piece of fabric can be so inspiring - so I am intrigued as to what you will make with it.
Ooo I forgot to invite you to link this post to my Sunday Stash linky post either this week or coming up this Sunday. I noticed that you had some great fabrics on the de-stash page that I totally missed out on.
I love your groovy fabric and the colours you are going to use are gorgeous!
Your fabrics are awesome. Have fun quilting along.
A gorgeous selection of fabrics! I hope you manage to get it done. Hahaha somehow slipped into the package =D
