Your fabrics are great! You chose the coordinates well,
and you have a lot of texture in your coordinates, which
always makes for a stunning quilt. Great job!

Here is my Clue #4 for the Wall Hanging size. OH NO! Now a whole week to go until more!......lol

mtngrl 01-19-2011 05:08 PM

Hi Missy! I think I have to redo a lot...I sewed the main color 2 1/2 x 4 1/2 to the wrong sides of the first block, the accent color is on the wrong side of the diamond. Is that a problem or not?? Thanks!

Must say Missy that Clue 4 caused me to prick my finger a lot ;-) :lol: trying to line up the last 2 strips but well worth it in the end. Looks like they were close to 100% matching points which i am thrilled :P about.

Here is Clue 4. Should be finished with all the blocks by tonight and ready from Clue 5 on Wednesday. Am so enjoying myself. :thumbup: for all your hard work and help. I am very happy with the colour design you helped me with. ♥

Clue 4 completed

Looking lovely - cannot wait to see your end result.

LovinMySoldier 01-25-2011 10:11 PM

I just read on Missy's blog that clue 5 will be the last clue :( I am sad that we are done already. This has been fun doing with everyone. I am sad to see it come to an end. But super excited to see what the end results will look like. Although I am a little worried about how involved clue 5 will be. It seems like we have quite a bit left before the quilt is finished. Thanks for being our Valiant Leader Missy!

Sew Krazy Girl 01-25-2011 10:37 PM

I'm excited to get the 5th clue. Since I opted to make the wall hanging, I should be able to finish it quickly. Would love to have it finished by Valentine's.

YUp.. you will be done with it by then..most likely!

Missy

PS... here is Clue #5 everyone... http://www.quiltingboard.com/t-93959-1.htm#2358693 ENJOY!

JAGSD 01-26-2011 10:19 AM

Okay, I just finished Clue #5, or should I say laying out the pieces. I was hoping and praying I would be "happy" with he wallhanging size. Well, Not soooo much!!

Now I am thinking I will have to make a "Queen" Size!! Someone please tell my brain NO!!!
Oh well, it probably wouldn't listen anyways!!

Missy, Thank you for Hosting this Mystery and am so glad to hear you be doing another.

I KNOW I do too... But...You're suppose to tell me NO. I'm trying to rationalize needing another Queen size quilt, If I don't be careful I will end up with one for everydayof the week!! Maybe this will be my Spring/Summer Quilt. Hmmmm...This may just work...((giiggle))

I went ahead and started work on Clue #5. After I got started I couldn't stop. This is what I came up with. It may not be exactly like Missy's, but I think it works anyway.
