Sheri, I saw the photos awhile ago they are so awesome, and the one that was hers was so touching.

I'm going to use this current mystery for one of the sisterinlaw quilts I need to make. I'll post my pic as soon as I get caught up.

I copied, cut, and pasted the instructions into a word document. I even copied the pictures. If anyone would like the final word document after the last clue is given just PM me with your e-mail address and I can send it to you.

Had my sleep, guess I'll go work on some WIP. Maybe I can get one finished by Friday. Right now I have 3 show quilts in process & a charity quilt. I think I can keep occupied!

Wow, I was behind but am now all caught up and waiting for Friday's clue! This is my very first train ride as I'm a new quilter and I'm enjoying it. Just may go back and work on the other rides as time permits. I've attached two photos of my project thus far - couldn't fit the whole thing in the picture and hope they aren't blurry because I did them at night with my ipad.

Well I just posted a pic on another thread so we will see if my luck holds. LOL This is a pic of the blocks that I was originally going to use for the table topper. Then I decided to make it larger only to find out after making about 30 blocks that I do not have enough white on white fabric to finish. After going to both Joann's in our area and trying to find on the internet, I decided to post a request on "In Search Of" thread to see if anyone of the forum has any I could buy.

Whoohoo!!!! it finally worked.

While it is working I thought I would post a pic of the fabric I need. It is really white on white but i put it on top of my light box so the design could be seen.

I feel so empowered!!! Yea me! LOL

This has been my first mystery ride and I have enjoyed making the blocks and look forward to getting it all together. If I can find the extra fabric I need, I hope to make a queen sized quilt with the blocks. If not, I will just make the table topper and save the extra blocks to use later on maybe another topper.
I have loved seeing all the toppers that you have made. They are beautiful. Thank you Judy for doing this for us (me). I look forward to going on another ride. Quilters, the train is almost to Florida! The weather has been in the 80's with low humidity. Loverly!
