[ATTACH=CONFIG]531520[/ATTACH]Well, here's my 2. The original was the dark one, the light one the afterthought. I didn't know if I was going to like the combo in the darker one, but it's ok. The lighter one goes with my mystery #7 quilt! Now to get them quilted & binding on before the quilt show Oct.17th! I'm going to put the darker one in the silent auction.

Finished! I decided to do mostly straight line quilting but wanted to avoid SID areas. I pinned front to back as carefully as I could and then started. Fall colors are the front, Halloween is the reverse. The lines are a little off on the Halloween side but I'm mostly happy with it. Didn't want a label so I put initials and date on the binding...not so great, but readable. Fun train ride! Hope I can catch the next one. Now I have to finish binding Mystery #3![ATTACH=CONFIG]531528[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]531529[/ATTACH]

I ended up dropping out of the train ride, but really love all the different colours of the pattern. I've saved the steps and hope to do one after I get moved. It seems like my whole life is in a "after I move" pattern these days.

Ladies, I've been peaking at all the beautiful table runners/quilts. Even though it's the same pattern they all look different by using different fabrics! I've printed out the directions for this mystery train ride and hope to make mine "soon" - promise to post my picture, too!!
