Summertime Mystery Challenge Solved.......

Alright ready for the reveal......

Some of you may have guessed......


This is the setting for the A and B blocks.....




and here is my finished top.





It was so nice today I got a good outdoor picture of it on the fence. :)

So for the borders you add an inner border of cream. 2.5 inch strips, and for the outer you then add  5 inch strips. I decided to use up my 2.5 inch strips to make a piano border. You sew 8 or so strips together and then subcut them into 5 inch segments and then sew them together til you get the finished length you needI

 I have a big basket of left over 2.5 inch strips that I add to all the time whenever I am cutting. I pulled all of the strips from the basket. I can truly say the entire top for this quilt came from my stash. I think I may have enough black and cream to scrap piece my back. Feels good to use from the stash. I am lovin" scrappy quilts lately.........


I also received a lovely suprise in the mail. Remember the clutch swap I made. This is the one my partner made for me. Isn't it cute.



Such a fun suprise in the mail today..... :)  / Jeri
