Spring mystery is all done

I`m happy as can be, I`m done with my Spring mystery. 

The Ladybugs kept me busy several hours yesterday....... 

.....when I finally got to the binding it only took about 20 minutes to sew it on by the machine......

Stitching the binding on the back took the rest of the evening and an hour this morning.

 I thought I was done, but I had forgotton ......

....the Ladybugs trails......

And here is the finished Spring mystery

The Ladybugs trails do not show at the large photo........

.....so some closeups:

And pretty on the back......

I would like to thank 9na for making a wonderful Spring mystery and all the ladies that participated. It has really been fun, and I liked the thought of sewing together.

All well to you all.

The quilting is done....

Dear Berit...

I do not know how you managed it, but you did teach me something at the machin-quilting-class in February!

Today I did what you told us to do:

# Draw first.....

# Sew a test cloth.....

# Round movements...

# Smile when you sew....

# Do not panic....

The list goes on.... ha ha ha

I drew several pages in my book

I sewed a test cloth, it took a while, but I was determent to finish it...

Yes, it is a whole 30cm x the width of fabric.

I managed to sew my gloves onto both the test cloth and the quilt!

Go girl....ha ha

Siw? I need new gloves..... ha ha ha

Then I quilted the Spring mystery...

It is the nicest piece of free-hand-machine-quilting I have ever sewn.

Honest!

Yes there are several ops! and arght#! but still the nicest...

Thank you Berit, a hug for you.

I`ll be doing the Ladybugs tomorrow....

The battle of the 100 squares......

I had a good look at 9nas photos and went into the battle of the 100 squares......

I think I lost! ha ha ha

There were so many of them and they all wanted to join in! 

I could make my table runner longer, I usually do! 

I end up with something a lot larger than the pattern!

So this is what I ended up with.

It started with something like 9nas and ended up with free flow in the middle!

I need to think and walk by it a while before I sew it together.....

Do leave a comment, an honest one! pleace..... :oD

I might not sew this together until tomorrow.... (3 children....)

Spring mystery - Ladybugs and 100 squares!

Well, I had quite a challenge to copy the ladybug from 9nas spring mystery... but I did it! 

YEY.... ha ha ha

The Ladybugs are now resting on top of my a lot more than 100 squares....! 

Can you ever believe it? I have lost the ability to count!... I just cut, cut, cut.......  :oD

I`m having fun and I`m looking forward to tomorrows new step. I`ve had a look on how the other ladies have done, and it`s looking great. I especially liked Vibekes colors, purple and others.

Spring mystery

This is the fabrics I have chosen from my stash. I need 100  2 1/2 x 2 1/2squares. 

But the question is HOW MANY OF EACH?......

This is typical me, stuck on details..... maybe I should just cut too many and use the ones I need? And make something else from the leftovers? ha ha ha

Decisions, decisions, decisions........  :oD
