I organize the mystery quilts for the quilt guild (Boundary Bay Quilt Guild). Of course, I HAVE to make each mystery prior to presenting it to the guild. Our latest mystery was designed by Sue Pontifex (of Piece Arch Quilters) and I originally made it around 2013.
Here it is! It is an alternate layout to Sue’s original. And yes, I used Island Batik fabrics, Aurifil thread and Hobbs fusible 80/20 batting. The free motion quilting is a simple hook with flower petals around it.
Here’s the original one I made in 2013, following the directions!
Members of the guild that have made this quilt will be forwarding me their finished tops and I’ll put them all here on the blog. From what I’ve seen, there’s going to be some pretty fantastic quilts!
One who sleeps under a quilt is covered by LOVE!
Happy Quilting!
Gail

A very fun finish. It’s always fun to see how different fabric choices and placement change how a pattern comes out.

Hi Gail, it’s so cool to see the effect that a little design change and fabric makes to a quilt. It will be great to see all of the finished quilts. Thanks for sharing. Take care.

What a difference in the two quilts. I don’t think I would have noticed that they were the same pattern, they are so different.
