I decided to participate in my first mystery quilt along. I've never done one before but I have watched a number of them and thought it would be fun to try one. I love the colors for Quiltville's Rhododendron Trail Mystery Quilt so I decided to give it a try.
To be honest, except for the yellow, these are not colors I tend to just buy for my stash so I pulled what I had, but I'm sure I have enough for this project. I have TONS of yellow but I just pulled out the smallest pieces from my stacks; hopefully I'll use some of them up. And I didn't have an aqua that was more than two yards, but I had three pieces that were all close to the same color with a little different texture so I'm going to do the aqua portion a little scrappy.
As we get going, I'm sure I'll raid my scrap bins and come up with more fabrics, but this was just the first pass on my fabric wall.
Great job on the fabric pull, considering they're not your typical colors! I'm hoping to do this BH mystery, too. We'll see!
ReplyDeleteI'll enjoy watching your progress.
DeleteThis is your first one? How exciting! I have made them all!
ReplyDeleteI guess that means you like them. I hope this is the first of many.
