No news here-nothing in or out-at least on the day I'm completing this report. However, I am on my way to Florida to visit my SIL and her friend. My SIL is a beginning quilter and I posted some of her projects a few months ago when she visited us here in Arizona. I know that there will be sewing and shopping. I will just have to report those changes next week.
I wanted to show off my completed Mystery Quilt, Glint. I participate in MysteryQuilts4Military, a yahoo group, that makes quilts for donation to our service personnel and veterans. I have completed 3 mystery quilts with this group and this one is my favorite. I have shown photos of the top before but now it is completed.
It was a little more work to cut all those pieces separately, with no short cuts since I did this almost totally from scraps. The red is a constant and the blue in the border was also a constant. The remainder is quite scrappy. I have a BIG box of red/white/blue fabric and barely made a dent in it.
Isn't this quilting awesome? My friend, Sharon, a longarm quilter, did a very special job for this donation to Quilts of Valor.

Beautiful quilt, wonderful cause!
ReplyDeleteI really like the mystery quilt design, and being red/white and blue makes it fun. What a great cause--you are a saint to make these quilts and then donate them!!!! Keep Sewing
