Laundry Basket Mystery



I finished assembling all the blocks from the 

This sew-along has been running for the past two weeks, with daily clues accumulating to 100 blocks.  The instructions were clear and well-written, and the pace was just right for me.  I'll be thinking about borders now, and will certainly look into other Laundry Basket projects in the future.

Meanwhile, I've decided to pass on the Quiltville UNITY sew-along.  I'm just going to concentrate on my own projects for now.

Day by day


These days are so weird: the entire globe seems to have entered a twilight zone.  Bizarre and difficult-to-absorb news, which changes every hour.  I feel like I'm existing in slow motion somewhere in a dream.

As a distraction:
Laundry Basket Quilts/Edyta Sitar started an appealing mystery sew-along the other day.   All the blocks are 6", and we are making multiples of each to create a balanced medallion-style quilt.  The series is only running for two weeks, and we're on Day 5 already, so it'll be finalized before I get bored and drift off.


 The official colors are bright pinks and blues, very summery and clear.  I chose a more dusty muted autumny palette of terra cotta and teal.  So far, so good.
