I think you will see what you need to do when you get the next and final clue. I can post those suggestions after I finish this mystery, would that be okay?

I have my 4 1/2 inch patches made into squares. I'm still trying to decide on fabrics a and b.

The sun is shining in Minnesota and we are to have temps in the 30's for a few days.

Sounds like you are going to have a great time!

It is an all-inclusive land cruise, everything except the tour guides tip included, going from place to place, overnighting at different hotels, in a country half the size of Kentucky. Should be more people-friendly than the cruise I did alone, there will be a maximum of 40 people traveling together, much easier to make acquaintences with a small group.

Good morning--this is my first mystery quilt--and I also have my girlfriend working on it..I also have a great desire to organize my scraps...but it seemed way easier to let loose and grab them from a bag when I don't know what the final
result will be. My granddaughter was over last week and said she wanted a quilt made from all the colors I had in my sewing room---so guess what---this will be for her!! WHOOO HOOOOOOOOOOO

Qusssum, I really like your purlpe and yellow. That is going to look good.

Meanmom, thanks. Smocking sounds like fun. I have two granddaughter under the age of two. I have thought about learning to smock. Need to find the time and courage.

Quiltaddiction, like the blue and yellow.

marytoddliz, your is coming out great. Purple is one of my favorite colors.

Paulswalia, I agree with VickiM, it's a scrapy. I do like the colors.

WOW! Judy, you are leading us to a beautiful end. Love the direction we are going.

After auditioning three different colors for color B I think I have a winner. My color A is going to be part scrappy and part a constant color. Off to the sewing room I go to have some fun.

I think we make 17 flying geese but I think I counted 24 in Mary's top. What am I doing wrong?

*

smocking was always most accurate for me on (woven) gingham and dotted swiss (the real kind not the printed kind)
