This looks fun and will be a first for me. I will reread the directions and get ready - after I finish the holiday gifts.

I am doing Bonnie Hunter's "Easy Street". She has posted step #3 but I have not finished #1 yet. It is a fun one but getting the time to sew anything is my problem. Check out Quiltville for Bonnie's latest.

i have done a mystery quilt in one sitting with several other women. i was a little slower than the others, so when they were done, they showed off their quilt tops. mine wasn't too much of a surprise, but i sure to like it. since then, i have used the same directions again in another quilt, and it looks so different. next time, i don't think i will sit in a room with others that are willing to show off before i had even finished. i wasn't THAT far behind!

Like Franie I am currently doing Easy Street by Bonnie Hunter and am really enjoying it. It will be my first mystery quilt and I think I'll try this one as well. Hopefully I can get it done in one day, but I expect it will take me a little longer.

Yep. Doing Easy Street too. I need to finish some projects before I take on any more new ones. Hope you post pictures!

Franie - - I hope you're taking Bonnies' suggestion and at least starting each new step as she presents them. That way, you'll have some sense of what's going on.

Looks great. I hope someone can do a reminder for us as I'm apt to forget to download part 2!!

I'm in - sounds fun - hopefully won't be too complicated for a novice quilter. I can now spend a few hours cruising the web looking for some great sale fabrics

Thanks, sharon b.
I've done a few mystery quilts, and planet patchworks are well written and easy to follow. Think I'll do this one, too.

This looks like fun. I think I'll shop my stash and see what I can come up with.
