I'm jumping aboard this train ride. It looks like it will be fun. I rather make a million 1/2 sqs than do most other pieces. I just do long stripes of the sqs at a time. Would it be scrappy enough if we had 8 1/2 sqs a like? Or do they have to be all different? Or is this too much info at the start of the mystery.

By the way, I'm putting my sashing on my blocks and working on my borders for Mystery #18. When I get top pieced, I will post pic. I'm still deciding if I want piano keys or 9 or 4 patch for final boarder. I'll decide after the sashing and blocks are put together.

I left nachos, 7 layer dip and chocolate cupcakes in the club car. Now back to work.

I've decided that I best be in the observation car too. After reading the introductory notes, it seems that the flannel shirts will not lend enough contrast to show off the secondary pattern that Judy mentioned. Thank you Judy for all the work and great pattern ideas. I will definitely keep this information for future use.

Carol, I think this is a wise decision to save your lovely flannels for a better project.

Happylab not quite sure how to answer you. If you don't have a lot of scraps, you can easily do yardage.If scrappy, my feelings are this: the more variety, the better.

I'm in. Will these fabrics work, Judy? The multi colored print is small and I'm thinking of that as a light. It could be background also and I could switch the yellow background with it.

IceLeopard: The more, the merrier! Judy's mysteries are a lot of fun!

Signing on again! I am at a quilt retreat at the moment so will have to search the stash when I get home, unpacked and......Looking forward to this ride again. Nearly finished with 18!

Looking forward to seeing where this train is headed. I already have loads of small HST since I always sew the bonus HST from blocks.

retired - I think these will be fine as you described their positioning. I sent you a PM about the yellow.
