Design Wall Monday July 23rd

I am late in reporting and late in completing my sewing assignment.  I am working on my second mystery quilt with the MysteryQuilts4Military@yahoogroups.com.  This is my second mystery.  The first top is off to the quilter tomorrow.


I am playing catch up with the clues and now I am ready for the next clue on Friday.  I hope the next clue uses blue and maybe no triangles this time.


These quilts will be donated too QOV and Hospice of the Valley.


I am enjoying both the process and the results.  I wanted this quilt to be scrappy but not knowing what the final product will look like-I'm afraid I played it too safe.  I am using the same background fabric in all the blocks but scrappy reds and blues.  I used 7 different red fabrics but I think they are so similar that it will not look scrappy at all.  I will use more variety in the blue fabrics I choose.





I love the bonus HST's that I have from the flying geese blocks.  I may use them in this quilt or then again????


Check out this Yahoo group if you are looking for some fun mystery quilts to donate to QOV.

  1. Love the look of your background fabric :) You're a day ahead of me--- finished up my own clue #3 just this morning; and YES! GOTTA love bonus triangles!!! And these babies are SO BIG, coming from 3.5" units.

    The likeness of your reds with have them blend very nicely together. Patiently waiting #4 too....
