Finally one mystery quilt down and only a few more to go..

Well I have finally finished the Mystery quilt, not sure about the final colour, and I needed so much that it has a dye discrepancy as I had to buy more material, but it was a great challenge and I so enjoyed doing the whole of the quilt and finding new techniques that I hadn't used before.

Now only have about 10 more quilts to finish, but slowly getting there. May even have some show and tell this coming visit. Finishing this many quilts includes the quilting myself (one currently being hand quilted the others will be by machine. Well except this one, it is sooooo big that I don't think I could get it all through the sewing machine. It also deserves a better photo.
 It is mostly Anna Maria Horner and a mix of nearly all her collections. I hadn't started quilting when the beautiful social climber was first out so I was very happy when it returned and hopefully the yellow goes well and it it is better in real life.
Denny, I'm even going to try your labels so thanks for the post.  May have to wait until the husband is out as he is very precious with his printer, as we have been through at last count, 3.
Now for some appliqué. trying a new technique on the machine as I am so far behind I wanted a few quick fixes. We will see
