I'm looking through my fabric now to see if I have anything that will work. Never having done anything like this before I think it will be good for me. I am usually over planning!

Quilting Aggi-I feel the same aboutneeding a reminder that Spring is out there somewhere! Your colors sound great!

I picked up some gorgeous shades of yellows, greens and blues. I wont' post my fabrics until I pick out a few more I want to add to it. Bonnie said all those piles of little blue pieces could be switched into one big piece 3/4 yard. so I think I will go that route.

I hope to get a start on it over the weekend. Its should be fun for sure!!!

I have been thinking of making a blue/green/yellow quilt for sometime now... so no excuse to not make one now!!

Its great to see a few others here wanting to make this quilt! I can't wait for all of us to start sharing photos of our progress.

Cheers!

Ok I chose my fabrics last night (photos of swatches coming soon), I also started cutting my 2 inch strips.. so far I only have some of the whites done... I was working on another quilt last night. I had to do some prep work for that one. Hopefully over the weekend I"ll start pieces all those 150 4 patches!! fun times ahead!!!

Yes Ruth you are doing good. But hee hee, you are just like me, can't decide on the fabric, don't want to use that, this, maybe that, won't go with this, and on and on. hee hee.

I have my 2" light (white/off white) strips cut. Hope to get the 4 patches finished this weekend. I am still debating colors too. :?:

I went to "Henry-JoAnn's" and had a spree like Henry does. Don't tell my DH-I came home with 2 huge bags of fabric. They had flannel on sale and I couln't resist. Looks nice on my shelf-waitng for me :lol:

I'm making this one too. I have half my four patches done. Very diverse colors and prints. I hate not knowing what the finished quilt is supposed to look like, but that is the point of the Mystery Quilt. If it looks dorky, I guess I will donate it. Hopefully it will look nearly as great as Bonnie's scrap quilts look!
