    If you leave a comment on here you should get a notice when someone comments too. I do that then just watch for the clues on Saturdays comments.

    Busy, busy, where does the time go? I finished hand quilting one of Bonnie Hunter's mystery quilts late Sat. evening. After cooking breakfast this morning, I decided the quilting bug has bitten me again. It's just before lunch and I have finished putting a queen size bear paw in the frame... as if I didn't have enough to keep me busy. Judy, I will go stash diving this evening and see what I can find for your mystery. Can't wait! Looking forward to Sat morning Oh there's hot coffee and pumpkin bread--hurry and get some before it's gone. It has a sticky glace it's soooo good

    Thanks, D and Mary - I can never remember how to subscribe to the thread. Can't teach an old dog new tricks, I guess.

    I'm in, one of my favourite quilts is one of your mystery train scrap quilts can't remember the number. I've lots and lots of scraps, this is my year to organise and start using so this will be a great start. I've left a batch of Millionaire's Shortbread in the diner to help pass the time till Saturday.

    So many first timers-word is out about how wonderful these mystery train rides are to follow! Sadly, I am away from my stash for 6 weeks, so I will follow along and collect the clues. Have fun!

    You will need scraps – lots of them, the more variety, the more you will be pleased with your quilt. I have stuck to small and medium scale prints, but you can also mix in solids and stripes. I was cleaning the sewing room a week or so ago, and realized that the boxes of scraps are out of control. And neutrals that you will consider as background colors – minimum of 2.5” wide. The more neutrals, the better.
    Just wanted to clarify. Does that mean all the scraps (not just the neutrals) need to be a minimum of 2-1/2" wide? Or is it just the neutrals that need to be 2-1/2" or more? Hope that makes sense. Thanks!
