I plan to make the mystery quilt as well. I made Celtic Solstice (KS), which felt like it took f-o-r-e-v-e-r to complete. I just got it back from my LAQ. I plan to sew the binding on this week so that I can hand-stitch it down. My goal is to have it completely finished before the Intro and color selection for the next mystery is announced on 10/15!!
