Super pretty! I love those fabrics together.

Quossum, the colors are so striking. It’s beautiful.

Vadalia, great choices in fabric for contrast. It turned out stunning.

Everyone has done such a great job with this mystery.

I am still plugging away! I haven’t been able to spend much time sewing the past couple of days. But I am determined to finish this quilt. I will post a picture as soon as get it done.

Lurking on the side lines. Too busy with other projects at this time. Plus I didn’t notice this thread until 30 minutes ago. Oh well. I did collected the clues and I enjoyed seeing everyone’s tops.

I started a second quilt with browns and green. It's taking a little longer than the first because I am pressing all seams open. As soon as the top is done I will post a picture.

Here is the top completed. I decided to change the inner border to the dark blue and do mitered corners to continue the diagonal theme.

Watson I really like the change to the dark blue inner border! It really makes the blocks pop.

I finally finished piecing the top. I still need to do borders. I think my Fabric B and Fabric C are too similar to create contrast. But I like the pattern and will do better picking out fabric next time I use it.

Thank you, Watson, for starting the thread. This was fun.
