Sunburnt Quilts

Quilts, Patchwork & Embroidery

A Little Mystery.

Posted on | February 19, 2013 | 10 Comments

This little quilt top was completed recently in a mystery quilt workshop.

It is a lap quilt or throw size.

We received instructions to select 3 fabrics – light, dark and medium.  We then had to do all the cutting before class.

This made sure the top was easily completed in a day.

Definitely a great way to spend a day.

    What a fun mystery and I love your quilt.
    the colours work wonderfully well together!

    I’m replying here to your blog comment… (still having email/internet issues)…

    You asked if it was hard to be doing a few projects at once… At one time I would have thought so… but now I’m thinking of them as individual art projects… and I’m not thinking towards finishes at this stage… just building blocks :D
    So far it’s working ;) We’ll see how I go in the long term… ha ha
    Thanks for stopping by xx

    That such a great idea for the class, it’s great to come out with a finished top. The pattern is wonderful and looks fabulous in the fabrics you chose.

    How nice! That would be pretty in Christmas colors, too. It looks like a grift all wrapped up.

  • Love the ribbons!! They look hard but when I break it down I can see that it is mostly in the fabric choices. Wouldn’t it be fun to do a scrap quilt with lots of ribbons!!

    I love mystery quilts! And your so right, spending a day stitching with friends and finishing a top, is a win-win!

    very nice quilt. Looks a little festive?

  • What a great quilt. It’s hard to believe only three fabrics could make such a stunning quilt. And so fast, too!!
