    Default Just Takes 2

    Is anyone here thinking of doing this Mystery BOM? It is hosted by Sentimental Stitches and Dear Jane. I looked at the first clue and see that they are doing a red and white combo and although it is beautiful, I am going to have to do something else. I have to see what I have in my stash when I get back home and see what i got. I am trying to do everything this year by stash only... wish me luck with that one lol. Anyways, if anyone is thinking of doing this, I thought maybe we could do a thing like we did for the Orca Bay Mystery so that we can talk and see each others work.

    I looked at it and down loaded the first ones, but will probably do in a different color, though I do like the red and white.

    I have my fabric and will hopefully be able to cut pieces today. I think this one will be a challenge for me to keep up with the block release schedule. I am using a white on white with a Thimbleberries print. I am usually not a fan of Lynette's fabrics, but this one almost reads 1930s. Im planning to do the redwork as it adds character to the quilt. So Ill play along with a sewing group.

    I'm doing the redwork part, but haven't decided on the rest of it yet...

    I cut my first 6 blocks, which took about 30 mins. I'm probabaly going to have to revise the instructions as I go. Since I hand piece the methods that tend to sew large and square down will be problematic.

    I am so happy to see that others want to do this also!! I am planning to see what fabrics I have as an option this weekend as I will get back home on Friday night. What do u guys think of doing a quilt a long together like we did with the orca bay? If others want to do it then I will contact Patrice and ask what we would need to do for it. Let me know what y'all think.

    I'm not understanding. Do we pay for each download? Each week or month?

    No the blocks are free but I'd you want the design for the embroidery part it is $2 for the design. I plan to try to make my own design for the embroidery to make it a totally free quilt.
