    My fabrics look pretty dark and blah in the picture, but there are actually some beautiful deep reds with the rusts and browns. I hope I like it in the end. It's going to be a donation quilt. I'm doing the lap size...

    Here are mine.
    SBG- yours don't look blah at all. They are lovely!
    I almost did batiks but then I found this bundle so I thought I'd use it. I haven't used my batiks in a long time. Need to get going with them.

    I made 4 Christmas quilts this year. I'm totally over those fabrics lol.

    I will be collecting the pattern this year. I have 2/3 of my fabric selected, but need to go through 2 more boxes of scraps for the others. I will try to sew the 1/2 squares as we do the other steps. My plan to get up early and find my fabric and cut/mark and sew/trim them throughout the morning. I’m looking forward to seeing your progress.

    Love everyone’s fabric choices.
    Unlike the past two Merry Mayhem’s, I’m starting nyd behind. I’m still working on my HSTs. That puts the pressure on for today!
    I picked out anything with blue and green from a FreeSpirit Layer cake. Using Grunge white for background.

    Beverly, your HSTs look great…I’m glad you’ve started on them. I’m sure you will catch up quickly.

    Today's the big day!

    Happy New Year ladies! (and any lurking gentlemen) My apologies for being AWOL for the past few days, I was taking it easy after getting the Covid booster.

    Everyone's fabrics look so good. I love the variety from more traditional looking to more modern- can't wait to see everyone's results!

    Assuming she's on schedule, the next clue should be posted in a few minutes at 10 am EST. I encourage everyone to also follow along with the FB page if you can, I love seeing everyone's finished quilts they post there.
