dancing bear Posted January 6, 2013 Report Share Posted January 6, 2013 I have been sewing non-stop wanting to get this wonderful top done before I get back to 'work' on Monday! I still have two borders to put on ... a small 2" inner black border and a wider something-something outer border ... but the hard part is done! Woo Woo!!

CWBowser Posted January 6, 2013 Report Share Posted January 6, 2013 I have the first 5 parts mostly done. I have part 6,7, and 8 printed and will have to start cutting again. When you get your top done, Dancing Bear, I would love to see it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sue E. Posted January 7, 2013 Report Share Posted January 7, 2013 I completed part 7 yesterday and now I have the first block A (in part 8) done. I just need to do all the rest and get them put together. I need more hours free! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IBQLTN2 Posted January 13, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2013 dancing bear I love your colors, I have been so busy making this easy street mystery that I have not even had time to post or read any posts. I am putting the last border on my Christmas easy street now and hopefully it will be done and ready to quilt soon. After taking all evening last night to put on the 1 and a half inche inner border, this moring I decided I didnt like it and had to frog the whole thing. Just finished putting a different one back on and now to do the outside larger border. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dancing bear Posted January 13, 2013 Report Share Posted January 13, 2013 i am awaiting a much loved fabric to arrive so I can finish mine. I'm looking at 3 small borders - I nixed the 2" black border with larger outside border - with a larger outer border and then something wild and crazy for the backing ... woo woo! Love this quilt! Sue, Kristina, Jeanne - Can't wait to see your pictures! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sue E. Posted January 14, 2013 Report Share Posted January 14, 2013 I'm still working on "A" blocks in clue 8. I still have the B Blocks to make and then I can sew them together. I haven't even thought about borders yet. Where is the time going! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quilting Heidi Posted January 14, 2013 Report Share Posted January 14, 2013 That came out great Jeanne. I like that your background is just that and doesn't compete so much with the main fabrics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrandmaLKB Posted January 14, 2013 Report Share Posted January 14, 2013 I am still working on Clue 8 as well. I had good intentions of keeping up with this, but "stuff" got in the way. I switch between the A and B blocks when I get tired of making one or the other. I am liking the way it is going to come out though. Also a nice size quilt that will fit a queen size bed when done.

CWBowser Posted January 14, 2013 Report Share Posted January 14, 2013 Dancing Bear, your quilt is wonderful. I love the colors you picked. Jeanne, Yours is fantastic too. I love the Christmas colors. That will be a very special quilt to use next December. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragon Lady Sandra Posted January 15, 2013 Report Share Posted January 15, 2013 I finished the top. I used the colors that Bonnie used. I really like it. I am not a big fan of Mystery Quilts--but this one is over the top. I actually followed blindly to the end. A lot of times, I wait to have an idea of where things are headed and where do I want to put what color. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
