Rose Colored Glasses is hosting a Front Porch Party on June 5th! Come on over and join us - take a picture of your front porch, or a front porch you love, and share with others who love front porches, too. This is not my front porch, or hers either, but on Friday I'll post a picture of mine.
As promised in a previous post here is a picture of part of the Mystery Quilt that I now have up on my design wall. Since I have way too many other things on my design wall (I know, Connie!) I can't get the whole thing up at once so what you're seeing is nearly half of it.
Isn't it gonna' be gorgeous! I never would have dreamed hearts. Now that I look at it I think that next to the last row I have on there needs a light strip between the last heart and the dark outside block. I haven't started sewing the rows together yet so I'll get that in there before I do.
If you haven't weighed in on the tile vote, please go to the previous post and cast your vote - tile or blue formica?
And last note before I go, shallowthoughtsfromiowa has declared a Finished by Friday challenge. Let's all post every Friday what we've finished that week. It could be big (like a quilt), it could be small (like a quilt block), it could be miniscule (like a pitcher of sweet tea)! But I for one might possibly be spurred on to finish a few things. :)

I want that front porch. I really dont have one. But have always wanted a huge one!!
ReplyDeleteGreat mystery quilt too.
I love front porches~and am still waiting on mine! Thanks so much for stopping by my blog. I'll be back to yours, soon!
ReplyDeleteYour quilts are beautiful! I enjoy piecing them, but haven't worked on any in a long while.

Love the mystery quilt. Hearts are my favorites. Sadly, no front porch picture from me cause I have no front porch, but I will enjoy the pictures of other porches.
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad you revealed the mystery. It's beautiful! I can't wait to see the completed project.
ReplyDeleteAlas! No front porch for me either . . . YET!
Blessings!

Looks like a fun mystery quilt! Agree about needing a light strip....I love porches too. If mine is respectable looking enough I'll post a pic. I love the Done by Friday idea! I need to play games like that to motivate me! I might finish something by this Friday since I'm cross-eyed from the amount of quilting I've done today!
ReplyDeleteHi,
ReplyDeleteI came over to visit you because of the most wonderful comment you left for Kathy at Kathy's Cottage about her daughter's graduation. I loved what you said. It actually brought tears to my eyes. That was the most perfect, true comment...
Love your quilts. My Mom was a wonderful quilter. I can't sew, but I am a mosaic artist and my mosaics have been called china quilts....
Nice to meet you...

I like that Finished By Friday meme. It could actually inspire a person to finish something! I'll see what I can finish by Friday!
