Rainbow Design Wall and Mystery Update

The last of the 2013 Rainbow Challenge Blocks are on the wall. Next was the audition of several fabrics for the sashing. Funny, the ones I like the best, I did not have enough. Then I remembered the left over fabric from the backing of another quilt -- Perfect -- and I even ended up with scraps.

Like the one done yesterday, I used 5 1/2" sashing and golden yellow corner stones.

Just in case a close up is needed -- see the butterflies, very girly indeed.

I am all caught up on the Mystery Steps, needing to move them to a larger basket. Bonnie Hunter's Celtic Mystery is about to start taking shape and I want to be totally prepared. There is a "Football" quilt on the quilting frame; the last 2013 Rainbow Challenge coming down off the design wall; and Rainbow log cabin top waiting in the wings to be quilted.

Can you tell, I am on vacation ..... Linking up with Judy's Design Wall at Patchwork Times and Bonnie Hunter's Step #5 of the Mystery Quilt.

Mary said...: You did a LOT of Rainbow Challenge blocks. Very different effect between the girly and boyish one. The sashing made a huge difference. YEA for keeping up with Bonnie's CS Mystery. 2-3 more weeks...; December 30, 2013 at 10:55 PM
