When you shine

I saw this mystery on Kathy’s Quilts and I like the meaning behind the quilt group mystery so will start another mystery. I usually do better when several projects are on my table. I picked out 9 fat quarters and can cut them up really quickly with the stripology ruler

Indigo way. Mystery. Clue 1

 Finally got this first part done. I just haven’t been motivated, typical gloomy January. Some year I’m going somewhere warm and sunny in January!  My lights are kinda muddy, I have an aversion to white!  I have some of the second part cut out, who can say when I’ll get that done!  Hopefully….

And here’s the 5th and last.

 End of quilts for donation, for awhile. I have managed to use up jelly rolls, charm squares and layer cakes.  Still a few left but will tackle those later. Up next is the Bonnie Hunter mystery, which I’m 5-7 weeks late in starting and nothing else to distract me!  Here’s my last quilt

2 more quilts today

 So that’s 5 quilted now to put the binding on them all. I may just finish before year’s end!  Yeah me!  I’ll photograph all five when done..  I made the best cinnamon rolls, highly recommend this recipe at Whippoorwill Hollow

End of year

 I have been quilting among other things this month. Three quilts quilted and need binding then 2 more to quilt and that’s it. Had hoped to have them all finished by end of year, maybe happening!  And then I can finally START the Bonnie Hunter mystery!  One thing at a time. Christmas was low key this year but good.  For one entire week I didn’t do much but watch Downton Abbey again!  It’s 10 years old but still so enjoyable . It seemed a good thing what with the depressing foggy cloudy smoggy weather. But things are looking up and that includes me!

Oh I did start one wall hanging with a bag of 2.5” squares I bought from The Exuberant quilter some years ago. A color wash design. I’ve rearranged these squares dozens of times but I believe I’ve come to a conclusion and can begin sewing but if you see something I should move, shout out!
