    Ok, this makes me feel a bit better. I guess I was just stressing about nothing and yes, as quilters, we can make anything fit.. what was I thinking? <hits back of head>

    I have never done a mystery quilt but this sounds like something I want to try. Then I won't be spending the day alone. I have to check the stash and see what I can come up with. There is plenty of fabric, so may be a scrappy one also.

    I do not need another thing to do, but this one sounds doable. I like the size of the cuts. I do have a jelly roll that doesn't have an intended use. I won't be able to start at 10:00. New Year's Day is a Sunday. Will the directions be up all day? It's time to dig out my jellyroll and purchase some light fabric if the WOW I have here won't work. Sounds like fun.

    I just cut my up. I had a box of florals that have been sitting aroung so I cut 28 strips of them. Most of them are pretty dark. I don't know if I will use them all but they are ready. I have a liight green for the medium and a beige tone on tone for the background.

    the directions should be up all day. planet patchwork mystery quilts directions from several years ago are still available free online. if they are not, you can send me a pm and i will get them to you.

    Hi,
    Count me in. I have some black and white and some white and black (the same pattern in opposite color). I also have some Moda marble gray that I thought I would use and some white Kona I thought I would use. How does this sound???? I'm terrible at picking color I'm very color challenaged I usually get help from the staff at my LQS when picking colors. Any suggestions???
