Default Scrap Dance Mystery Quilt

Here's another Mystery Quilt for you all! This one looks fun. I like that she gives you options for different sizes right up front and starts you off with the cutting! And there is LOTS of time between clues!

Enjoy!

I'd love to do this but I just can't commit due to working.

Do you know if she does this yearly?

I'm just finishing the Scrap Dance that just finished. I just might do this one too, have plenty of fabric to use!

I decided to give it a go! One thing I liked about her way of doing it is that you make the basic cuts of your fabric at the beginning. The last BOM I did, I really wanted to use some of the fabric I 'set aside'. So after a couple months of the BOM, I couldn't wait anymore and raided my BOM for that fabric! Now I know what and how much is committed so I can put the rest of the fabric to good use!

Here's my first step.

I also like the idea of doing this one...her instructions and measurements seem very clear and easy to follow. I'm just going to start with a throw size but I would love to use up some odd scrap pieces this year.

I have a whole bin of batiks that I need to use up, so decided I would like to do this mystery. I spent the afternoon cutting out the pieces and sewing the first step together. I think I will also do her Waltz pattern since all the instructions have been posted and I have lots of batiks to use. I like her instructions. Thanks for the link.

Whoa, hold on! In step 1 she said additional background fabric and more scraps would be needed later.
