clue 5 Allietare quilt

Here is my little sample for the  fifth clue to Allietare 2015!

This has been great fun to sew and I love the earthy, marble like feel of it. Thanks to Bonnie Hunter for all that it takes to produce this free mystery quilt pattern!

Stuffy puffy and fluffy, and clue 4!

Doing clue number four for Allietare mystery quilt was easy and fun, and I love how the black background fabric gives the illusion that the other fabrics are floating in space, how fun is that!?! Also I am back to working on my flutterby quilt as well.

For some reason the blocks are not coming out 10.5 when done, despite me checking and rechecking and then trimming away even the most scant dusty particles for squaring up the 4 patches and recs, I don't get it. I gotta find another Jen Kingwell customer and get to the bottom of this.

clue number 4

Here again is another Allietare mystery quilt 2015. Loving the colors and fabrics together, even family members that don't quilt love it!

Also the baby quilt top is finished now just to sew together and back it, it's been fun.

Totally cool way to spend day off!

 Had a great day off, we played with play dough,

 Found a fantastic gray constant for the mystery quilt, and another fun neutral too,

     helped my daughter pain her dining room an appetizing shade of 'pumpkin pie'

and I forgot I had this, now do I use it or wait for something on my new grand daughter (yes I think it's a girl.)?

What a great day off!!!

Mystery Monday Link up page and quilt colors

so here is a preview of the true colors for mystery quilt and link up page on quiltville if I decide to do one:

I am thinking that this will look fantastic with the blood red and black added to it!  So sorry I got rid of some retro floral gold materials about 2 weeks ago, but live and learn I guess. 

The agony and pretty good.

First for the good news:  I did a dozen or so of the clue #3 units for Allietare quilt. Very pretty, happens to be one of my top all time fav color ways for decorating EVER!!

And the bad news is that I need extensive repairs for the transmission, so I will be horribly broke for the winter.  Ho Ho Ho.

how cool is this?  I watched an older broadcast from the quiltvilla and followed the directions Bonnie so nicely gave us and here is a great little stash buster!  Have too many older charm packs waiting around for years, so it's time for them to live a little. quiltville.blogspot.com/p/live-quiltcam.html

Digging around in the old stasharoonie and I found some charm squares that I forget about, how splendid of them to match the mystery quilt colors!! This is sooo exciting!
