    Nice finishes everyone. I made some extra blocks on the last one. I decided to make NICU quilts out of them. just added a border and had a quilt. ANNAQUILTS is collecting them for the NICU's at her site. she'll take tops, batts or fully made quilts. great cause for these little ones. they can be 15 x 18 or thereabouts. great cause.
    Can't wait for the next clue. today is over so we only have Thursday and Friday till the next clue. Hurry please, can't wait anymore.

    BettyB, so glad you got your stars fixed (and I didn't have to tell you!). I was going to. It looks great!

    I found the perfect backing for #8 today.....it is a rust red and tan homespun, looks great with my "prairie" quilt.

    My Mystery Train #8 has been finished for awhile. I was waiting for the sun to come out so I could take pictures but it ain't happening. So here it is. Along the way I decided to make a paper pieced Flock of Geese block with some of the left over scraps. The Flock of Geese block shows the true colors in the quilt top.
