I made a big mistake…how to proceed

 In looking over the magnificent mystery at Meadow Mist Designs, I just realized I’ve used the wrong colors. Good grief how can I be so stupid.  Here is what the pattern required and I’m using the bottom row, with the black background.   I’ve made A as my background with of course not enough fabric and way too much black..  I don’t know what to do I could just keep going and I have some other cream fabric I could use. I guess the other colors would play together but I really wanted a black background!!  And I spend a lot on this fabric….oh well it’s just a quilt…

Lupine mystery clue 3

 Almost done with these, will be ready for the next clue.  I’m thinking I need to recount these!  We need some BLUE!  

 Here are the rest

Magnificent mystery

 Working on the September clue need to check all squares to the correct size 

Lupine mystery clue 2

 I can’t believe I’m caught up on the first two clues. Next clue on Friday   Clue 2. Some of the geese will require creative sewing. I think mine got worse the more I did

I’m also starting the Magnificent Mystery, it started in September so I’m way behind. 

Lupine mystery, clue 1

 I’ve done half the clues and the other half is cut out. Then clue 2. Today I needed to rest mostly after an exhausting Thanksgiving…but good. I did make a pumpkin pie and some cranberry jam. The jam is a new recipe   I overcooked the pie and I think maybe cooked the jam too long…oh dear  nothing’s as easy as it used to be!

Coat of many colors

 That’s what this quilt reminds me of…it’s very colorful   The back is a micro fiber sheet, need to take another photo  and I’ve cut our a few of the pieces of Bonnie’s mystery quilt.  There’s no reason why i can’t keep up with the clues!

It’s quilted

 First quilt I’ve put together and quilted in a long time. Boy it’s harder than it used to be…just need to bind it then can start on Bonnie Hunter’s mystery quilt.  I haven’t done the last two mysteries but I intend to since I have the fabric. I miss my quilting buddy, my sister, we always did these together.  I have a couple projects lined up. It feels good to be back in the sewing room , poor thing has no name…
