The Answer To The Mystery, My Friends, Is Blowin' In The Wind

Mystery Solved!
I have a top!
Four Corners Mystery Quilt 
Mystery by Quiltygirl Alycia

But the clues can only be found (for a short while) if you are a member of  the Mystery Quilts For Military Group


There was a break in the storm so I went out to snap a few photos and as soon as I got the top hung up on the line the wind started blowing and I could feel another storm brewing so I had to snap photos quickly. 

I've participated in most of Alycia's mysteries over the last few years but I was going to skip this year because my stash of patriotic fabrics consists mostly of smaller scraps.   Well, not one to miss out on a good mystery I rounded up a few red, white and blue fabrics to go with my patriotic smaller scraps and managed to solve the mystery.    There's a lot of chains in this one so hopefully I know have them all going to right direction.  There are four different ways to solve the mystery after you have gotten through all the clues. 





And sew on...

    Looks great! I like the setting you chose. I have made several of Alycia's previous mysteries, but didn't have the time for this one.

    Nice! I haven't chose my final setting, but I'm strongly leaning towards yours. I am a sucker for a chain reaction.

    I like how that turned out - especially the way the chains go out into the border! This one looks perfect for your stash with its scrappy background pieces.

    Even with a somewhat depleting stash of patriotic fabric, you managed to make a lovely quilt. Well done! ;^)

    Wow! It's gorgeous. I can't decide which setting I like better. Alycia's is great and so is this variation.

    Amazing what you can achieve when you are using up every little scrap. Looks great.

    Fabulously use of smaller scraps! I printed out the clues, have not started the construction yet! I love all you R, W, and Blue fabrics, not necessarily all patriotic!
