I have seen reference to a mystery quilt project here and I saw the first posting that said there would be one using scraps but where do I look to find the following information? I've never done an online mystery quilt and would like to at least follow along to see if it's something I want to do.

Are you talking about the one that Judy is hosting?
If so, it's the Mystery Train and it's under the category Blocks of the Month.
I hope this helps. I am doing it and it's a first for me.

18th Mystery Quilt Train Ride

On my computer the directions start on page 5

the clues are released gradually Judy's are on Saturdays.

I looked for this and had to sort through all the usual responses and comments about joining the group. Is there a place that a person can simply see the instructions without reading through all the other things? My computer is so slow that I finally gave up.

And of course there is quiltvile.com - Bonnie Hunter

Illinois- did you find it?
On my monitor it's page 5 near the bottom.

It's posted by paintmejudy and post #111. And she added a correction on the sixth page.

You need to make 48 four patches with 2.5" squares, with two of the squares a background fabric. (To make them you need 96 2.5" squares that are colored and 96 2.5" squares of neutral background fabric).

And also make 12 four patches with 2.5" squares with all colors, no neutrals. (To make those you need 48 2.5" colored squares).

For your colored fabrics, she said to use small and medium prints, no solids. I am doing it, a first for me, too. The four patches need to end up 4.5" square and be accurate.

Illinois, Hope you find what you need these are fun quilts and they work up fast. Ask on the Train site and everyone will help you find what you need.

Thank you JustaBitCrazy for doing this! It's so much easier than sorting through all the comments, hoping to finally get to the instructions. My computer is aging and is so slow that I was struggling to find this.

JustABitCrazy, thanks for your kindness about posting the first clue. I agree with illinois... It took me awhile to find post #111 and sort through comments. I hope find tomorrow's clue easier!
