Mystery Monday #7!

The first day of spring has come and gone here and we still have large piles of snow everywhere.

(This was our actual road a few weeks ago.)

But that is ok...because I know it can't hold out much longer. Spring will come right?!?

I am not one to complain about the winter in Minnesota but this year has been long. So to bring alittle sunshine into the house I picked up a few plants. I am a major flower lover. I favor roses but really like just about all flowers. So I brought this home from the local grocery store~

It's a much needed pick-me-up. Now if I can just keep it alive until I can plant it outside.

To celebrate the coming of spring, we are going to whip up a new Mystery! It's a quick project that will only take us few weeks and then it will be done in time to use when the flowers start popping up.

This week we will begin with picking out our fabrics. Here are the fabrics I have chosen for mine~

Here is your list of supplies~

3/8 yd for background.
1/4 yd for main fabric.
1/4 yd for inner border.
3/8 yd for outer border.
1/4 yd for binding.
2/3 yd for backing.

Next week we begin sewing~YAY!

If you like, send me a picture of your fabric choices, I will share them here next week. It's so fun to see what everyone picks out for their project.

You can also follow me on Instagram. I will be posting my progress there along with all the other stuff I am working on. Come join me!

 

P.S. Please ask your friends to join us and feel free to spread the word on your own blogs....the more the merrier!

you didnt' mention what we are making or a size. It appears to be small with the amount of fabrics. I may need to try this one :)

Hi Debbie, Yes it's a small mystery..turn away now if you don't want to know...it's a cute table topper/candle mat. Quick and fun for spring.

Hi Lois,
Instagram is kind of like Facebook but just pictures. Really a quick fun way to see things without all the chatter. You do need to sign up but it's easy and I think you just need an email and password. Thanks!

Hi, Just wondering if there is another step to the Monday Mystery 7. The last on I got was part 6. '
The new book looks great.
