Fun Threads Mystery

Do you remember Carol's mystery quilt over at Fun Threads?

I'm thrilled to say, mine is done... and I love it!












Did those blocks give you a clue?
LOL!!


How about this snowball block...

Or this too cute snowman...

Add in a few flakes...

And a few trees...

and these gorgeous Ice Crystal blocks
and what do you get?


Pretty "cool" don't you think?
Nothing tied it together better than the icicles hanging from the bottom!
:-)

I have to say, this was so much fun to put together.
There was a little piecing, a little applique, a little paper piecing...
A little bit of everything!
What a wonderful mystery and a fabulous design!
Thanks "sew" very much Carol!


For those of you who live on the east coast...
I'm guessing that your not nearly as thrilled with this right now.
That weather you got this week, surely was not fun.
 I hate to brag, but it was 70 degrees here, when I was taking these photos.
;-)

I hope you are all safe, warm and surviving the storm!
What better time to make a commemorative quilt!
After all it beats shoveling all that snow!
:-)

  1. This is just darling!!!....although "snow" is becoming an unmentionable 4 letter word in my house.... 14" due tomorrow. I'm hoping the forecast will be wrong. None the less, your snow scene is really cute and comforting. Enjoy!

  10. Great quilt, you are right about those icicles. We are being threatened with more snow for tonight and tomorrow but I don't care I'll be packing for the big move to FL.

  11. I hang my head down in shame, I only made the SNOW part, but my problem is that my BLUE stash is not great, so I felt discouraged, not to mention lots of other things I felt I NEEDED to do too.
