Jen, it is beautiful! You bought the mag, now you have to join us! LOL

If you follow the directions in the mag, they tell you step by step how to do the triangles. Personally, I try to stay away from them, but it is time to break the phobia and just do them. I did a couple of test squares and they were as easy as hot as a hot knife in melted butter! :)

I did not know there was a group on gb that was doing the New Year Mystery Quilt. My dd and I both did it and were asked to post pics of them. This is a pic of dd quilt. I will have to make mine smaller in order to post.

TooMany- that is so neat I did mine with my Mom and sister ! Wasn't it fun to have someone sitting close by to help keep you going .... especially cutting all those small rectangle units :shock: LOL

I am thrilled that you posted your daughters pic here and can't wait to see yours

I also bit the bullet and subscribed to the magazine. Figure that the next issue will be here by the time my subscription kicks in ......

i guess i will go look for the mag and strongly consider this 6+ month mystery quilt. from some of the questions posted on mccalls website regarding the 1st part of the instructions, it may be a bit of confusion. i may do a subscription also. it's only $14.98 for the subscription versus $5.99 each for the magazines. i look at is this way, i will get 3 "extra" mags for the price. yay!!!:D

Thanks for the compliments. It is fun to have others quilt with you. I always get behind and then give up. Friends keep you going. One of my friends called twice a day to see what step of the mystery I was on. After a week I finally got the top done. I'm so slow.

Toomany- we allget that way- glad you could keep going :thumbup:

The McCalls shouldn't be too bad as we have 6 months to get it done since the magazine is bimonthly :rolleyes:

And we are looking for a Super bowl Day mystery :)
