Quossum- I love your sense of humor ! And the fabrics are wonderful - I agree it does feel good to get the cutter going again :) I still have some cutting to go and then sewing the strips together that are suppose to be done already - THEN - I have to pack everything up as I am doing this at my Moms tomorrow with Mom and Sis , Good thing I have Dick Clark to keep me company tonight :rolleyes:

I'm doing it, too! First time to do a mystery quilt. I thought I had everything ready until I read everyone's posts....now I think i need to cut more strips. I'm using Amy Butler Love design that I really like. I only have eight different fabrics plus the light and medium solids so think I will check my stash and see what else will go with it. I'm fairly new here so haven't figured out how to post a picture. Happy New Year!

I have mine all pressed and cut- now to sew the long strips together, pack up the machine and wait for the ball to drop
|
I got my fabric selected and cut today. Also, cleared the junk that had piled up on the sewing machine. So I am ready to go. I didn't have any really calm tone on tone so i hope that my fabrics work out. Just from my outragously random collection in my stash.
So I think I will get to bed shortly so I am fresh in the morning. |

Did the cuttin, sewing, pressing. Changed the needle in the machine and wound a fresh bobbin. Put water in the iron and have a fresh can of spray starch.. Here are my fabrics. I just pulled one of every color of moda marble I had in the drawer, we shall see what that looks like. May look totally scrappy, we shall see in just a few hours. I would like to keep the pictures in this thread, no need to open another one and have to switch back and forth to see what we are doing. JMHO

'nite all 'see' you in the morning. ....new needle in the machine is a great idea, thanks for mentioning that !!!

Thinking of joining in as well will do some searching to see if I have a couple of Jelly Rolls suitable I will be a bit behind as Im an Aussie so will be sleeping when it starts but as someone already stated not a race ( so much for not starting anything new ROFL )

Well I just finished cutting at 2 am. I didn't sew and I didn't get to wash as I picked a batik jelly roll so I may be in trouble. I prly shouldn't have cut so late because I made a cutting error with my light fabric. Luckily I bought extra. I picked a creme for light and light purple for the medium and a purple Bali pop roll. I was grateful for my sizzix cutting system as my rotary cutting is not that awesome. I'll post a pic of my fabrics tomorrow:) see everyone at 10:)

Last year I followed the Planet Patchwork mystery quilt and really enjoyed it. This year the chat will be at their web site
I may start the project tomorrow. Haven't picked out fabric, yet. |
I would love to work on this project, What time does it start in central standard time?
