A Past Mystery Quilt


This quilt was a mystery quilt a few years ago from a Camp Stitches event.  A friend and I chose some of the same fabrics.  The two quilts were very different when finished.  I enjoyed this mystery class and was very happy that my choice of fabrics came together well.  Sometimes that is not always true!  I think we have all made mystery quilts that did not always turn out to be happy finishes.  Several years ago a mystery quilt I made while I was attending my adult quilting class was not a happy accident at all.  When I chose my fabrics they all played well together.  When I finished the quilt, my center blocks almost disappeared and the borders took over the quilt.   All of my other mystery quilts have been happy accidents for me.

Tomorrow is the first day of our Camp Stitches 2015 event.  Saturday I will be teaching a mystery quilt class.  I hope all the participants mystery quilts will be happy finishes.

Happy Quilting
