It's that time of year, time to begin Border Creek Station's mystery quilt. This years is a celebration year as this is the 10th mystery quilt.
If anyone else is interested in joining, please check out Border Creek Station's website (
http://www.bordercreekstation.com/mysteryquilt.html ). There is a list of stores across Canada and the U.S. that are participating, including our local quilt shop Bear's Paw Quilts in Whitehorse, YT!
Our local shop meets once a month (second saturday) to discuss the quilt in progress and pick up our next clues.
We just received our first clue this weekend, so the cutting begins!
I had previously picked out the fabrics I wanted to use. However, after our first meeting, I realized that my line up was a bit too busy. I had a lot of feature fabrics. So I decided to shop a little more and move my line up around a bit and I came out with a much calmer quilt, still in the same colour scheme I wanted.
Here are my fabrics...I'm sharing the first line up I made so you can see the difference.
