Okay! Maybe I'll get to sew tonight. May try Insul-brite in the sandwich to add protection for my wood table top. Hmmmm, have to think on that...it will be a bit stiffer. Seems I will be thoroughly distracted until I get to my sewing room. Thank you Judy, for great fun.

It was a great finish. Thanks Judy for all the work you put into this so we can sit back and have so much fun. I am ready for the next one. lol

Wow Judy!! I really like the great finish, too :thumbup: Thanks for a great ride - I've tackled some new sewing techniques - never have sewed on the biased triangles before . . . just hope I don't stretch it too much before I complete the borders :D . . . yes, I'm handling it very gingerly! I've checked out the other Mystery Quilt Rides I've missed and want to try them - - - Thank you for all the work you put into such a "ride" - I do appreciate your skills and efforts. I know I'll keep my eyes out for the next M Y S T E R Y R I D E . . . save me a seat!!!!

What a clever way to make it just a bit bigger and yet not use a whole lot of fabric. Really nice look!

A little hint -- after it is assembled, measure the sides without stretching. If you lay the top down and gently pat and smooth into place and measure the sides to make sure they are the same length and not wavy or lumpy, and pin well, you won't have a stretching problem.

As everyone has already said, Thank you Judy. It has been fun. Printing off the instructions to use when I decide just how big this is going to be. Might downsize to a twin size. Looking forward to our next ride together.
The train has finally arrived in Florida. The temp today is 71* but bright and sunny blue skies. You won't want to go back!

To 26 below?? I don't think so. 71 sounds wonderful.
