    Looking back over the pictures again, I’m just taken with how each quilt looks a bit different based on fabric! Very interesting pattern.

    So I intended for this to be a stash buster to do something with these leftover batiks and have the fun of trying a one day mystery. I'm so happy with how it came out that I'm definitely making it bigger.

    I love seeing everyone's quilts! They all look beautiful! It always amazes me to see the different looks that come from different fabric choices.

    Well, as I look at all the quilts, I keep thinking, "Oh, that's my favourite so far!" They are all striking. I decided I wanted a larger quilt but ran out of the light green. Since I didn't want it square, I enlongated it by borders. It ended up 60 x 72" - a perfect throw size. Not sure I'm completely happy with the result but I think this will make a colourful splash in the nursing home. When it was done I ended up with a 12" strip of the light green. Whew!

    Everyone's quilts are so pretty. This was a great mystery as they have all turned out lovely. Finally have my blocks done and on the design wall.

    I love these finished quilts!
    I printed the clues but I've been so wrapped up in the BH mystery that I haven't even started.
    I can't wait to make mine.

    Everyone!
    I love looking at all of your quilts. They are beautifully done! I printed out the clues and hope to get to one after I get a few WIPS done!
    Thanks again for the link up to this mystery. I like them!
