There are Two Mysteries in my mind right now - the one that I am hosting in our Mystery Quilts 4 Military Yahoo group - we are finishing up step 3......
And the Bonnie Mystery!!! ( ohhh maybe I will call my Mystery - the Alycia Mystery..... ohh I sound important that way - ha ha ha ha HA!)
First up - The Alycia Mystery:
Fun Little 9 patches.... There are more blocks than this so far - But I am not sure how she is going to arrange them ( ha ha - such a tease right?)
These are the fabrics that I am using for this go round .
And for the Bonnie Mystery!!! Step 1 - Lots of half squares!! We are to use a grey and a Neutral... so my Neutral is a bit on the plaid side.... I love me some plaids!!
progress being made.
and the light being turned on, as worked on into the night - alright - Truth time - it is dark here at 4pm - so it may not have been as late as I thought it was!
Ta-da!!! 294 ( or 296?) half Squares. I have NEVER been able to finish a Bonnie Clue in a day - so I call that a huge progress step - and probably setting myself up for disappointment later .... But right now - I am totally happy dancing!!
And just in case you missed Fall
Here is was - Fall in the Rockies

Color me TOTALLY impressed!! Umm, I have 300 HSTs that need trimming... volunteers?? ;) Yeah, I thought not. Couldn't get my husband to do it either!! LOL Great job! You have a few days to give yourself some pep talks, drink some motivational tea and get ready for the second clue! You can do it!!
ReplyDeleteFabrics and Mystery parts are looking good! Glad you found time to sew.
ReplyDeletePlaid? Of course!! :o))
ReplyDeleteYou are amazing!!! I am saving Bonnie's steps for the mystery and may make it sometime...I don't like not knowing what the quilt will end up looking like!! Guess I'm a bit of a control freak that way!! You did great!!!
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness...I want to join the mystery quilts for military! I love mysteries and that would help me get more done each year to donate! Thanks for the info on that! Yay for joining in on Allietare!
