What fun we had yesterday. Twenty-five + guild members met to work on a mystery quilt. Everyone arrived with their 70 charm sized squares (5 inch squares) and 21 two and a half inch strips of neutral fabric. Shortly after 9:30 a.m. we were at our machines waiting for the first clue. As we sewed and sewed the past presidents ironed for us so the production line could keep going. At noon they called us for a wonderful lasagne lunch and then it was back to the machines and design surfaces - walls or tables or any flat surface. It was so much fun seeing all the different quits as they were laid out ready for stitching.
Here's what mine looks like to date. I love the zigzag look. It reminds me of rows of rickrack. I have to figure out whether the quilt is finished or needs borders but that's for another day.

It does look good. Very airy and spring like. You put a lot of thought into your fabrics.
