Merry Christmas

Mystery Quilts Anonymous

Life has been very busy around the Montgomery household. Between church activities, family activities, and preparing for family to come in January, I'm not sure we have had time to breathe recently. There are so many blessings in the busy-ness though: we have family to love on and a church that loves us...double blessings.

I haven't written on the blog for a few days, and for that, I am sorry. I have taken what spare time I have had and sewn on our Kindred Spirits 5K quilt. I am so excited with this one and and very happy with my fabric choices. If you're having trouble choosing, please post your choices and I will do all I can to help you. Also, with this one we have larger block sizes. If you need it to be smaller, you can cut your blocks in half (for example you would make 6" blocks instead of 12"...although, our blocks are larger than 12"!!) It will just take a bit of math on your part, again I will help as much as I can! I have a future quilt in the works with big blocks as well, I will be offering it with small and large blocks in the pattern!

 
I am really happy you are with me, I am enjoying our group so much. I have many goals for us in 2020. I'm spending part of today and tomorrow with my new notebook, converting it to my daily "appointment" calendar so I MAKE time each day to sew, write, work on the book, design, and have fun with time in there for the normal daily chores. I love us! I can't wait to fill this notebook to see how far we will go in 2020!!


Lastly and MOST IMPORTANTLY, I want to wish each of you a very Merry Christmas, doing exactly what you love with those you love. I hope each of you have a "white" Christmas if that's what you choose, or the best bbq weather out there for those of us in the Southern Hemisphere! 

Thank you for sharing this journey with me, I deeply appreciate each of you.

With love and wishes for a Merry Christmas,
Deb

Mystery Quilts Anonymous   I have been in contact with a number of fabric manufacturers and I wanted your opinion on something... I am wondering if you think I should offer kits for our mysteries. If I offered something like that, would you purchase the kit or would you order your own fabrics? I would organise the kit with the manufacturer and you would order direct from them (at least, that's what I am working toward right now). I have heaps of ideas in my head...offering the kits in more than one colourway, including binding yardage, even using fat quarter (or other pre-cuts) packs for scrappy looks....    If you already have a stash like mine, you may not want to order for a specific quilt. But, I would love to make it available for you. If you can think of any other way I can make this easier for you, please please please let me know. I have a stash that will outlive me, so I am sharing mine with my granddaughters (and those grandsons that want to sew)...

Mystery Quilts Anonymous With all the feedback from yesterday's blog, I just wanted to give you a bit more info to ponder and think on. Firstly, I need to be honest, since our beginning I have given this group and it's members 1,000 percent of myself and my designs. I make NO money off the patterns and time spent. I want to keep the patterns free. I love that so many can make them and love them. I feel we have so much talent out there and I love tapping into that talent and providing patterns you love. I have been trying to think of other ways to make a little money for my "work". SO, I am thinking I will start a "real" blog and use the advertising as a source of income so the patterns and our facebook page remain free. If you have thoughts concerning any or all of this, PLEASE make contact. I have already had one quilt shop owner contact to offer a discount to our members...this is a giant step in the direction I would like to go. We are in ...

I am so happy to introduce you to our own blog. This is where all new things will come out and we can have a central place to always go back to. I will keep our "history" here and I can't wait to fill the pages with our fun and our story as we go! I am really excited for this next phase of our journey!  Let's do this...and have heaps of fun along the way. We have no quilt police here and no rules. We share our furbabies and families! I would love to keep it that way. I can't wait to move forward! In this together! Debi
