    Thanks everyone, think this one as opposed to the first one, makes better uses of those harvest prints I've been saving forever.
    CTYankee: The block is 20 inches. I used all Judy's instructions. The block is finished at 8 inches with 2 inch sashing around the four blocks.
    Ms Grace: All the quilts in this thread used the instructions put together by "paint me Judy". Judy is now moving on to her 10th mystery train ride. Join us on the next one or any of her prior ones. I promise, you will never be disappointed. On this one there are three clues, all issued on consecutive Sats. Just start with post #1.

    Lovely tops/finishes, everyone!

    Emma: I started at 5 and finished the first two. Numbers 7, 8, and 9 are in various stages with 8 being the closest to being finished. That one is a gift for a co-worker so I need to get it done before the school year ends or I won't see her until I start subbing next fall! Then I will procrastinate all summer if I don't get it done. lol

    People tell me that I'm supposed to be retired! I really enjoy still being around staff and kids at the two schools where I mostly go. Soo...projects get started but not completed. I'm hoping to get a scrappy off of my design wall this week and then work on number 9 along with 8.

    I didn't find Judy until train ride #6. Keep saying I'm going to go back and do the ones I missed.

    Question for all you Judy devotees. How many Judy designed UFO's do you have? Counting the second #9 I am finishing now I have five.
    I have #7 to put together yet...was going to use it as a raffle quilt for our military reunion since I did it in r/w/b; wouldn't work because of the 24 1/2" center I needed (so did it the Elizabrat/Jaba medallion way; worked out great!). So I hope to get #7 put together soon. All the rest are done (have been with the train since day 1), but have this #3, #7, #8, & #9 to yet quilt. I'm looking forward to #10--always alot of fun!

    Just a commit on what I call a UFO. Basically anything that I have folded up and put away before completing to the laundering and gifting stage.
    Love the colors and the pattern you came up with!

    I've done a couple quilts on the serger using charm squares...but don't think I would try anything more than simple squares or strips. I was pleased with how they turned out.

    Vicki: I saw the quilt you did for your military reunion. It's just amazing. The whole thing looks like a patch and you did an amazing job on replicating the center. Beautifully done!!
