Sunday stash report

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.

  2. I 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
