    Default Mystery Quilt

    I made this Mystery Quilt from one of my quilt groups I really like the pattern but I'm still nopt liking the color combo I picked. I didn't realize picking fabrics was going to be so hard for a sight unseen pattern. But it turned out pretty good I guess if you like green. Now for the quilting part.

    I love it, but do agree that on mysery quilts a lot of the time I would have chosen differently had I know what the pattern was going to be. But then guess that's half the fun

    Cute pattern--I agree, it's hard to pick fabrics for mystery quilts. Then, when I realize I'm not in love with it, I put it on the back burner (shame on me).

    I love your green quilt. You did a good job and I like your choice of fabrics.

    It is great to hear I am not the only one who finds mystery quilts difficult. I did one that turned out okay but the colour placement made my pattern disappear. I love green so I love your mystery top!
