I did ALL of my running around and shopping yesterday anticipating the last clue and a day of sewing. This has to be my favorite Mystery Train ride.

Judy - that is an absolutely stunning quilt. I'm behind as I was out of town for a few days and still playing catch up on several projects. But plan on finishing clue 2 today and working on the last clue tomorrow. I have a feeling this is going to be one of my favourite quilts.
Breakfast tacos in the club car, everyone. Let's celebrate our trip together. |

So I rounded it off and cut a few pieces of bias binding to splice in to that area when I was sewing the binding on. |

Oh My! I love your kingsize! I think I will have to enlarge mine a bit. this is a fun and easy pattern! Thanks for sharing and taking the time to do this!

You'll find me in the sewing car excitedly having fun with the last clue. Thanks Judy for fun train ride with beautiful scenery. I'll be back chatting when I have every thing pieced. :)

Love the quilts Judy! I especially love the different colored stars but I was afraid it would be confusing for me and I would be doing too much ripping.
Esther, you are fast! It looks great! Can I ask what size it finished? Maybe I don't need to make mine bigger. |
Pam - Esther did the size that finished about 56 x 72 - I gave the size on the first posting. It is a nice size, isn't it?

I'm ready for clue 3!!! Hope I can get it cut so I am ready for my quilt retreat tomorrow. Now if I only had time to play with the "leftovers" !!:D

Judy, your quilt is beautiful. This has been a fun trip.
paulswalia, lovely colors. Are you the first finisher? :thumbup: Deb, the chevrons were made the rail fence way, sewing a strip, cutting and tipping the pieces after they were on the design wall. I can link a tutorial if needed, but you probably don't need it. Pat, I can't wait to see your small patchwork. I am always amazed by that kind of thing. Green or orange stars? I can't decide. I wish I had enough yellow. |
