The 1st set of mine looks so different in person - the triangles are a warm creamy beige & a bright Aqua polkadot. It must be the lighting when I took it. In the 4 patches the dark is a bright kelly green.

They are both super pretty! It's a ton of fun making these mysteries, but what I enjoy just as much is seeing everybody's unique versions. One of my favorite features in quilting magazines is when they show an alternate version of the featured quilt. Mystery Train is a mega "alternate version" experience. Thanks Judy!!

Judy you do so much for everyone. Thank you for all you do. You are also very talented. How long will this next train ride be? I am thinking of a table runner, because I have an extra long table to put one on in my living room. :)

Judy if you have back problems you need to talk with the Laser Spine Institue. They fix my lower back pain. And boy do I fill so much better...

Good morning! Well, seems as if the vote is in favor of another scrappy and I have decided what I want to do. You will love this one, or at least I hope so. I really really like it. And I have come up with what you will need for 3 different projects/sizes. And yes, Mary, one will be a cut-down version to make a table runner. Now, this is absolutely against my own rules of early clues, but the next one will start on 3/28 and you will need a good sized piece for the two larger sizes, and I know some of you don't have large pieces. So I will tell you that of a neutral background, you will need 3/4 yard or 1-1/4 yard or 2-3/4 yard. This give you a chance to see if you need a trip to the fabric store. I have chosen a beige/tan tone on tone small vine print. I will show the background print I am using on 3/28 along with a pile of scraps I have chosen to give you some guidence. Does this sound okay? I know a lot of you have many things on your to-finish and won't want to start this one, and that is perfectly fine. My feelings wont be hurt!

So with that, I am off to the gym, then some errands and finally the grocery store. Ugh. Back has been bothering me all week so really need to get some food in this house. See you in the morning, and we will get to the end of #9.

Where do I go to get the rest of train # 8 and 9, I seem to miss them after I get the first information.
