Super Bowl Mystery


I can't believe I forgot all about this until I saw it on Kathy's Quilts - total DUH moment.  This is my LQS and I get their newsletter!!  OK, these mysteries are a one day event, small project, and you usually have your flimsie finished by the afternoon.


Kris at Quilt Bug has the fabric requirements posted and the schedule of the mystery clues time line.  Here are the fabrics I plan to use and if you visit Kathy, you can see her fun brights.  OR you can go with the color plan Kris has - totally your fun!!  I just 'shopped' my fabric shelves.  I've been wanting to play with that wineglass fabric for a long time - my border fabric - and pulled the other colors from that.  This will be my February 'Something New' and monthly 'Make it Handmade Christmas' project - whoot!!

So why the guys are enjoying the game and being all noisy - go play in your sewing room with a fun mystery.

**update**  

I had very good news from my surgeon - got the green light to start walking everyday to build back up to norm.  Next appt. is a month away.  AND I got permission to start driving in 2 weeks - whoot!!   Thank you all for your blessings and prayers and kindness - you certainly had a big part in this healing process.

Sewingly Yours,
Sharon

Praise God! It is not easy not being able to accomplish what we take for granted as normal tasks. I was basically homebound for 8 weeks with eye surgery recovery and even though I'm not a person who has to get often, it was not easy. That month until the next appointment will fly. Prayers for continued recovery.

Good to hear your good news. Appian Way Mystery sounds nice. I wonder how all of the grays and brown look in the end. Think I prefer what you chose to work with.

Great news! Hope your rehab is going well. I'm a bit behind in my blog reading, so I suspect you're up to driving now. Travel safe!
