So....it's time to switch trains. I'm going to try to keep up, but with it being summer and once a week I'm not sure. Oh well, there's always the caboose. I hope people keep posting their first mysteries here. It's so much fun to see the finished products. Sulabug, nice wall hanging to go with your beautiful mystery. Jenniky, I'm not positive, but I think Sulabug's fabric is by In the Beginning.

I don't know why you couldn't start with canned pumpkin, roasting gives it a little kick in flavor, but canned will work too - and you can use splenda, I sometimes will mix it half and half with sugar, since my diabetes is under control with no meds or insulin - if you can get the sugar pumpkins, they're extra sweet on their own, so you can use less sugar - if using Splenda, I would just put in the chopped ginger and cook it down, then add the sweetener just before it's done - tasting it to see how sweet it is, adding a little at a time. I think all recipes are suggestions only ... sort of like quilt patterns

Small pumpkins you can roast whole (put one or two holes in it like a baked potato), otherwise cut them up and remove the seeds, the stringy stuff is okay, it will get put in the pot with the rest of the pumpkin pulp later - I usually take the seeds out, soak them in salt water and then roast them separately - yum!

Oh please do continue to post Ladies!!!

... I am sure I am not alone in saying that I would like to see these mystery projects as everyone finishes them up. I haven't been able to get back to mine again yet, and still plan to. In the meantime, seeing what everyone else does, will help me with ideas on what's next for mine.

And too, for those that come later, it's important for you to be able to share your fun as you work on your block(s).
