    Beautiful finishes.

    Busy in the garden all week. Today Sam’s Club shopping and through horrible traffic.

    Quilt is on the design wall. Soooo close to finishing the top. Tomorrow, hopefully. Or maybe middle of tonight, depending on sleep.

    The body is finished at ~2;30 am.. Time for bed. The pole in the middle of the picture is a light 💡. This is a small room-sorry for the distortion.

    The experience has been worth effort. This is one of the larger quilts I’ve made. It definitely looks on point. The jury’s still out. It might be too busy for me.

    It's beautiful, petthefabric! I loved that you swapped the orange and white. Great job.

    Stitches23, love how the stars stand out. This one is great for variations. I think I used 6 in my version.

    petthefabric, love your green patterned background. It really pulls the quilt together. I know exactly what you mean about the busy patterns. I just visited family and took several completed Mysteries. They were almost the last to get chosen, I think it is because of the way the blocks blend into each other. The reason they are so much fun to make.

    Petthefabric: Your center is great! It doesn’t feel too busy to me because of all the repetition.

    SueRN3: I can see why Josie is such a distraction. What a cutie! Hard to resist.

    petthefabric, your quilt is sensational. I absolutely love it!

    toverly, I think you have to make sure people first see a Bonnie quilt from across the room. They are so busy close-up.
