Since I've decided I have enough fabric to add another column and possibly a 3rd border, but have no idea when I'll get around to it, I hope you all will forgive my unfinished quilt here. All-in-all, I consider my first mystery quilt a success as I love how the pattern turned out!

vadalia yours is one of the nicest I've seen! It's all in the fabric choices and how successfully they play off of each other in the final reveal. I've saved the clues for this - doing Bonnie Hunter's Frolic and other obligations - and will do it some day!

Yeah, I've seen almost everyone (including myself) who did the smaller version say they wished they'd done it in a bigger size (or are planning to) I was a bit nervous about doing a mystery quilt because I'm a newbie and don't have much fabric to "waste" if I didn't like the pattern- but this exceeded all my expectations!
