I've never done a mystery quilt before, and would love to try this! Like everyone else I'm in the throes of Christmas prep, so this will be a treat to look forward to after the holiday rush. I think I'll also shop my stash and see what I can come up with. If not, then off to the LQS I go!

Thank you for posting this. I will check it out. I am presently doing Bonnie Hunter's mystery and enjoying it. My first mystery and a challenge to myself to stay on top of it.

I've done two mysteryquilts at my guild, and unfortuately, I discovered my sense of color does not lend itself to certain patterns...I actually named one "the hideous monstrosity" ...They were fun to do though!

Can you just explain how it works. We log onto this location and follow instructions which come up at hourly intervals? I can send pictures no webcam.

they post "clues" - the next step usually hourly. I don't have a web cam either :) We can post pics here or Ithink they said they will also have it on Facebook - but I have never had any luck with the chats they run

Ok I caved and bought fabric for the mystery:) I pushed the boundaries with some of the fabric choices so I hope I like it when we start putting it together. I'll post my fabric tomorrow. I'm hoping I like the pattern cause I love the fabric:)

I will be joining you if I can get the fabrics selected and the precutting complete. Remodeling came to a standstill, so it's kindof hard to do anything, but I can set up for 2 days. I actually NEED a lap sized guy sortof quilt for my brother, so this actually has a goal in mind.

I did last year's completely from my stash and actually finished it. I'm going to look over the instructions and shop my stash for this one, too. Thanks for the link!
