Cheryl at Meadow Mist Designs has started another mystery quilt and of course I have to play along. I really enjoyed making her Magnolia Mystery and can't wait to get started on another one of her wonderful designs.
**resistance is futile when you have no will power**
You only need 4 fabrics for this quilt, so it's easy to pull them from your stash. I scavenged some of my fabrics from a kit I had bought to make a paper pieced tablerunner. I love the fabrics, but wasn't loving the pattern, and this new mystery project works well with these fabrics plus a few FQ additions from the general stash.Because I get bored easily sewing with yardage, I'm doing a slightly scrappy version. When the instructions say you need 1 yard of Fabric B, I'm using 4 fat quarters of the colour instead of yardage.
Here are my pieces cut and ready to sew. Of course I ran out of the cute background so will try to obtain more.
If you want to join us, fabric requirements are here, and the first link up to see the fabrics people are using is here. There are already over 80 quilters linked up sharing their fabric photos. I enjoyed seeing all the resourceful systems that quilters have developed to keep their quilt pieces organized using clips, stickers, pins, baggies, and baskets.

Love your fabric choices. I too will be using fat quarter s as for the 3 colors.
Your ability to tackle and finish so many SALs never ceases to amaze me.
Such a fresh and pretty color selection.
Resistance works when I have other quilty deadlines and no extra days to Play. Fair and Quilt Festival coming right up. Enjoy the Mystery. I will wait for Quiltville's to start on Black Friday.
Your fabrics are beautiful! The background is darling & that border will be fantastic! I'm resisting this SAL...for now.
Love the colours you will be using, very Spring like indeed.
I really like the colors your have chosen for this little quilt. I wish I had some of the background fabric to offer you. It is very cute.
Pretty fabrics Kathy. I have yet to cut mine.
