Thread: Has anyone ever done a Quiltmaker Mystery Quilt?

I did a large lap size quilt that required over 9 yards of background, 5 yards for color prints and 3 1/4 yards for borders. I was amazed when I saw the list but it turned out to be pretty accurate. That quilt included just shy of 10,000 pieces. Hopefully this mystery one will be a little less intense. With that amount of yardage, it will end up being a heavy quilt. Mine is very, very heavy.
