This package arrived on 15th with the second block pattern and my yummy fabrics for Lynnette Anderson "My Garden" Bom. Just love the fabrics .
So I better pull my fingers out a start. hehehe!!!!!
With all the other UFO's. ya!!!!!!
I have finished one UFO last week a log cabin large lap quilt which is now a the local patchwork shop being quilted will post photo when it arrives home. So now there's only 30+ UFO's and counting down. The trouble is I keep adding more to the list.

Mystery Quilt blocks finished

Under the border fabrics are the Bedford Mystery Quilt blocks that I have finished this week. I can not show the completed blocks as the mystery has not been revealed as of today's date on the blog site listed in a earlier post.
I have the border material all picked out just have to put the blocks together and wham!!! a new quilt. The blocks are all numbered and ready to be stitched together with help from Darcy as always. Sitting on the fabric as I had it laying on the carpet to place the blocks into the order that looked right!!! Cats!!!!
