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.
ReplyDeleteNice! I haven't chose my final setting, but I'm strongly leaning towards yours. I am a sucker for a chain reaction.
ReplyDeleteI 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.
ReplyDeleteEven with a somewhat depleting stash of patriotic fabric, you managed to make a lovely quilt. Well done! ;^)
ReplyDeleteYours ROCKS!!! I love it!! and I love the scrappy of it!!!
ReplyDeleteWow! It's gorgeous. I can't decide which setting I like better. Alycia's is great and so is this variation.
ReplyDeleteAmazing what you can achieve when you are using up every little scrap. Looks great.
ReplyDeleteFabulously 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!
ReplyDeleteIt looks terrific!
ReplyDeleteLOVE this! I have a feeling this will be the most popular lay out!. Yours looks wonderful with your fabric choices.
