Back at it and EXCITED!

 
Mystery Quilts Anonymous
Well, I have been home for a week now and I think I am finally over jet lag, but picked up some silly bug on the plane or somewhere! I have just felt so drained and sore all over! BUT, I am feeling way better now and have had a couple of good afternoons in my sewing room. I have had Katelyn in here with me and sewing her little heart out. 

 

She has been designing and cutting a new quilt. I showed you her first one and we are in the process of writing that one as many  of us want to make one. We are writing as we go on her second one, that way she's prepared if you want to make one of these.


 


She wants to do everything herself and learn how Nana does it each step of the way. This is just so sweet and I am honoured to be a part of this. She's a little perfectionist and has ripped a couple seams because she lost her points. Such a proud nana moment! 




I am working on getting the last clue written for Crossroads and getting those pics in. I am also working on Kindred Spirits...writing Clue 4, so I am almost finished. I can't wait for you to get started on this one. It is our 5,000 Member Celebration Quilt. We now have 6,200+ members! I am so amazed by our group... a fantastic group of quilters with a common goal and love. 

I can't wait to get moving again, I am sad when we don't sew together!! 

Have an amazing weekend!
Deb

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 &q

Thoughts???

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) and we us

New Beginnings, Fun Times...

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
