    Thanks for posting this for me, that is the one I did. Only thing Judy left out what to do with the corners! That I took off one of my books, transferred it with Golden threads paper, stitched thru it to create the corner designs. This quilt was a real learning experience! 4 different thread colors, 3 different thread types, feathers, design work, Found out the pipes on my frame aren't smooth in spots, so caused the machine to "follow" the rail instead of doing what I wanted it to do, & of course, with the different threads, sure learned a lot about the tension dial! OK ladies, throw me a quilt! I can handle just about anything now!

    Sulabug, you know this isn't my train mystery! It's all batik! But...you're all welcome to come by & I'll quilt them for you! I think I'll do the mystery something similar.
