I have done a few mystery quilts over the years and find that I like having control over my fabric placements. So I kind of stopped doing them. Until
Tish announced she was doing two sizes of her Fireburst Mystery! One could do either a 32" or a 64" square quilt. Hey I can do the 32" and add a border or two (perhaps) and use it for a donation quilt! That kills two birds with one stone-I get to have fun with the other bloggers making one, and I get a donation quilt done(and you know I like to do those).
So why oh why did it take so long for me to pick out my fabrics. I guess other things prevailed until this week-yep I picked out my fabric on Tuesday.
Got it cut on Wednesday morning...
And sewed it Wednesday afternoon. Yeah I am up to speed now:)
Linking up at
Tish's . Are you joining in? I think there is still time!
I love this color combo. You've used it before with great results!
ReplyDeleteLove those colors! Poof just like that you are 100% caught up :) I promise this one is so easy one can wait till the reveal in October and still have plenty of time to join in the fireworks display in January :)
ReplyDeleteVery nice fabrics. These will make a nice cheery donation quilt.

ReplyDeleteHi Vicki! Woot woot! I was hoping you'd play along. L.o.v.e. the colors and your fabric!! Ooh, pretty orange - that's a color we don't use too often. Look how quickly you got caught up - nice!
