Welcome to my blog about quilting and various other crafting compulsions that I indulge in. I hope to share my work and creative process with others and get their feedback and comments. It's like Quilt Guild in cyberspace!

Mystery Solved
These are all the blocks from the Common Threads Quilters Mystery Quilt. I learned two things from doing this quilt so far. One is how to do a partial seam. I used to think this would be hard to do but it is a piece of cake and solves a lot of ways to make more complicated blocks. The other is how to look at choosing fabrics. The usual way is to find a pattern I like and then go looking for the fabric. This time I selected coordinating material that I really loved and then trusted the pattern. I tend to agonize and second guess about the design too much. I need to learn to let go and not be censored by my doubt and questioning voice in my head.
