Thank you so much for clearing that up for me. Now that I look back at the picture again after reading what your wrote, it does look more as you said. I am so happy I am now unconfused. Anxious to try my hand at hand quilting. have a great day!!

Trains...and quilts...and food... oh my! I'm climbing on board as we speak. I bring Cheetos, Peanut M&Ms and an occasional apple with peanut butter and all is accompanied by Diet Dr. Pepper and Diet Mountain Dew. I'm not sure if I eat and sew or sew and eat. No matter, both work. I have some of the fabric on hand and and will get the rest soon. I'm anxious to find the mystery![/I]

Audrey B, If you'll look at post #2344 & 2353 you'll see the "mystery". Other clues: clue 2- post #339,
clue 3-#714, clue 4-#1129, clue 5 #1363, clue 6-#1566, Last clue 7-#1777
Have fun.

Well - I finally finished putting the borders on #7 Mystery top. The 'base' has been sitting with other UFOs, and just kinda was 'outa sight, outa mind' - but knew it was there, with it's borders cut! I really do like how it turned out..Judy, your idea to change a couple of my prints around sure made it work. Usually I finish these mysteries right away, but seemed other priorities came first. I think I might just make it like a throw, you can see how it fits the bed, so using it as a throw seems doable. I even have a pc of fleece I might use as backing! Yeppers, sounds like a winner.. The second pic is a closer look at the inner design. I like it lots.

Jean: So rich and bold. Many of the fabrics you used are either actually in my stash or I have drooled over online. Congratulations on a beautiful finish!

Well I did get it put together by time that ride ended, had it all pressed, measured for borders, cut them, then folded it all up and laid it on my "finish' shelf, and there it laid!! I'd move it to get something and think 'why don't I finish that', and go right on doing whatever...lolo It's so easy to do, huh? I passed on the last ones Judy did, I'm not much on scrappy, although I have enuff scraps to make 5 tops!! Anyhoo, glad I bit the bullet and finished it. Thanks for the comments.
