1st time doing any kind of mystery. I am doing Pat Sloan's BOM. here is my 1st block.

I am going to do the one from about.quilting.com. I am printing out all the pages today so I can go at my own pace. I am a slow quilter.

I wanted to do Pat Slones but could not find all of her fabrics. Wish she would have made a kit to buy.

I did the one at about.quilting yesterday. I am usually more of a scrappy quilter and while this mystery suggested that scrappy was doable, I wasn't comfortable going that route without an idea of what I would end up with. I didn't finish the top, got about 2/3 done. I am happy with the result even though I used only five fabrics. As soon as I get the top finished I will post a pic

I wonder if Craftsy is doing another block of the month... I watched (but didn't make up) the ones for 2012 and 2013- they both looked intersting. I watched in 2014 when I started quilting...
The Craftsy 2014 blocks didn't really interest me. The colors were so loud that I didn't watch the lessons after the first month or two... Here's hoping they do it again in 2015!! |

I've been following Bonnie Hunter's Grand Illusion Mystery Quilt, purchased the fabric for it at the Houston quilt show, and knew I wouldn't have time to start it until after the holiday season due to the fact that I'm working a 2nd job trying to save for a car. I did start it yesterday, and now have Step 1 finished! Pretty pink and aqua HST's, all 280 of the little suckers!!! I am taking all of next week off from my day job, so I have almost a week to play in the sewing room and get this thing done. I may change my mind once I see it, but I'm thinking of giving this quilt to a new and yet dear friend of mine. It's just too busy for my liking but I love the colors in it, so my friend may get something else. Bonnie Hunter's pineapple quilt perhaps? Much easier, and also cheaper as I will use the fabric I already have, and I bought the Grand Illusion fabric specific for Grand Illusion.
