Your Mystery Train quilt top is gorgeous, Retired Teach!

Connie, that came out great! Mine is still in pieces. I got side-tracked with Christmas and Mom stuff.
I bought Beverly McCullough's new line, Vintage Keepsakes. Couldn't resist. She has colors and designs that rock my world! Being busy with my Mom I haven't done much of anything quilty and when the notice for it came in my inbox I treated myself :)

Thanks for the complements. It was dark last night when I took the picture and my lights just didn't do it justice as far as the vibrant colors. I may try to get another one this morning since we have some sunshine again.

Here is a better picture of the colors.

Also, my neighbor loved her homemade baby gifts and she made sure to tell me afterward that she would definitely use the receiving blanket. I told her to use it until it tatters and she knows where to find me to fix it. Lol!

Making a planned stop at the LQS in a week. My Guild is having a Barn Quilt class at the LQS and I will be there a total of 4 hours. DH gave me a $100 gift certificate Christmas. I want to get it gone and I'm purchasing backing. Since that is what I usually run to there to purchase, I think it's a safe bet that I'll use it. But I have been amazed so far this year. No fabric purchased. Thanks!

Great mystery quilt, RTeach! I've been going through bits and pieces as I work on a couple of littles for school fundraiser.. Have a small checkerboard with some embellishments all done, a mini flying geese strip waiting for the strips and borders to be sewn on, and a 60 degree Easter hexi made from someone else's leftovers. And while I was pulling out Easter fabrics I decided to make a simple tableruner that still in progress. i would love to share pictures but still can't find my camera and since I have a dumb phone....well you get the picture:D 14 inches of snow this weekend I should get something accomplished!

Rteach....love your mystery finish. I just love her mysteries. I'm definitely going to make this pattern when I can access my fabrics again...

Uh oh. I’m off the wagon again. I didn’t fall off though, more like I willfully jumped off. There was a sale on Kona solids so I stood in front of my stash and only ordered the colors I don’t have, areas that were totally bare, like navy blue. My stash is still young enough that it has big bare spots like that. I do want to be in the moratorium, really I do, I don’t need any more lines of fabric but the only solids I had were Tula solids and white and black. Can I climb back on the wagon now?

Oh Pamela, Pamela,... what are we going to do with you...?

Sure, you can climb on again, but where did we put that rope!? :)
