Morning. I am glad to be alive and have a heaviness in my heart for the loss of my precious Kay and now sadness for those who lost their lives while living their lives. My God be with them.
I have been working on Kevin’s Mystery Quilt . On Friday I cut out 800 yup 800 2 1/2″ squares from some left over Timeless Treasure Lollie Pops (probably purchased in 2013/2014). What a job but it felt good to move around in the Studio after a difficult week. This is what 800 looks like!
This is Color 1 of the Mystery quilt and we are to make 4 patches – all 184 of them! Yikes!
Color 2 will be lights – all 700 of them (2 1/2″ squares) to be cut after I finish all of the 4 patches! I may not finish them before we take a little vacation from the world! We will see.
I did work on 2 blocks from Stonefields, but it seems that Ms Susan Smith was off on her measurements (what’s new) and I had to waste some fabric and time before realizing it – I would show the problem, but it is gone with the trash man! I have my own version that I will show when finished.
Have a safe and blessed week! Enjoy Life!

When I saw the colors he was using I knew that I needed to do this one. I had so many strips left over from a 2013 quilt – nice to use them. Hugs

That’s a LOT of cutting fabrics. Sorry about the issue with the other pattern. Very frustrating when that happens.
