#8 mystery quilt train ride - it's scrap-alicious!
#722
On the vintage machines site on here we did this for someone. We sent a 9 patch with a plain center so we could send a message or just our names and states to a person and then they ( in this case they assembled them into a quilt )sent the quilt to the person. So I know it can be done. I would be glad to send one or two also.

I love Windblown's idea.
Dotty, I know Lynnie volunteered you but if you don't have the time, let me know. I can contact her for her address and forward it to anyone who PMs me. I don't want her to post her address here.

You just start sewing 4 or 9 patches (all scraps), start with it & end with it while making your blocks from something else you're working on at the time, they pile up & when you think you have enough to make a quilt...go for it! You never break your thread. Here is the one I just finished that I talked about above. You get great scrappies & before you know it, another quilt! These are UFO's & will remain that way till eventually I finally quilt & bind them...they are all batik/blender 2 1/2" squares, then found a brown blender to put it all together...all out of stash... I work on about 3 different sets of L/E at the same time. I am putting together another L/E batch of 2" squares also at this time. I can post that probably in a week or so...I am using it to put this mystery together. The below one I got finished doing BHMQ.

Jolo will get back to us with an idea of color or theme that she would like. You all are great.
Did you know that 2 years ago QB members sent 107 quilts for victims of Hurricane Sandy? And we help many others.
