Is anyone else doing the Modern Mystery Quilt?
 

The Modern Mystery Quilt starts tomorrow! Is anyone else doing it?

So far all I know is that it takes 3 yards of a background fabric - which I've already picked out a few possibilities. I guess I'll decide which one I'm going to use after the rest of the fabric requirements are given out....

I'm going to try it!

I downloaded part one. The designers of the mystery always create nice quilt patterns. I want to make it but I have too many quilt projects to finish right now. I'll probably see the mystery before I make it.

I just saw it this morning - I would love to try it - I don't know if I will start now - I have too many projects going right now - but I do want to see how it turns out - I like those particular designers that are hosting the project.

Thanks for this. it is just what I needed.

Thanks for sharing - I will go check it out. Have a lot on my plate but have really started liking a lot of the new Modern quilts

I also downloaded it, i'll wait till the end to decide if I want to make it.

I have downloaded the first step and thought I would try and get it started sounds interesting and I love a good Mystery!

I just printed off the first step as well. It looks fun.

I dled the first edition...guess I'll see how it goes! Hopefully it's a fun and attractive quilt...I'm not into scrappy.

Me, too. I am way behind, but I am saving the steps and hoping to get to it eventually.

I'm downloading for later. I need the mystery unveiled before starting on it. Too many quilts in progress at the moment and the thought of starting another one is a bit overwhelming even if it is extremely tempting.

I went to look and it intrigued me! Then when I went to bed I pondered it . . . . all night! So I got up early and made the first step! When I first saw the modern quilts I wasn't sure I was drawn to them. Then, the more I saw the more I liked. But, you would laugh if you saw my choice of fabrics! The fabrics are a mix of batiks and others with a very traditional background fabric. But, then, my house is decorated?!? in the eclectic style.

Thanks for the site. I'll look into it. :)

I think that I will try this mystery using multi-colors such as scraps. It might be a good way to clear out some of my smaller stash. Using a white or ecru background ought to make the prints, etc. pop! Anyway, it I don't care for the outcome, the quilt can be donated to our community quilt project in our guild, or you could donate it to a local
nursing home, or a Habitat for Humanity housing project in your area.

I started it and this is what my first step looks like

I have to do mine this weekend. I am not sure what fabrics I want to use. I'm thinking Christmas material since I have a lot of that :) I'll work on it this weekend. I have a quilt day with my guild tomorrow. I know one other is working on it tomorrow so I will too. :)

Same here. I do plan to do the 1-Day Mystery next Sunday, tho.

I love it! I can't wait to see it all done!

One day mystery? Do tell! The last one I made I enjoyed. I'm not going to keep it. It will be a donation quilt when I finally get it quilted... but I did enjoy making it :)
I didn't get to make my step one yesterday as I hoped I would. I brought fabrics - a coordinated set of fat quarters - but then decided that I didn't like my colors after all. I also decided that I just don't like using Xmas fabric. I'm going to sell it all. I have literally 3 xerox boxes of it and I never ever use it so it's time it finds a new home.

I am new to the quilt community, but I think I would like to give this a try.

Here's the link to it. I think it sounds neat -- only 2 yards of fabric! Mt MD just had a baby so I'm going to make a baby quilt & kill 2 birds with one stone!
