    This was a free online mystery quilt from www.quiltville.com and I joined five quilting friends, each making our own version. I chose blues and oranges instead of the greens and pinks in the instructions. It was an incredible amount of cutting and sewing and created more lint and thread bunnies than anything else I have ever made! I enlarged the quilt by making the inner border wider and adding a third border.

    98" x 108"

    Special quilting on each of the three borders
