    Marta/Dotty: Really nice, both have great contrast!

    Here are a few of mine--no good place to take a photo of all of them.

    Angelia: Mine look a lot more like yours in terms of value. As long as the lights show up I'm happy.

    Ditto here. I recognize at least one of my fabrics in Angelia's samples too!

    Looking good everyone!

    Have four blocks completed. I'm doing controlled scrappy with Christmas fabrics (except for the light neutrals). Loving how they're coming along. Will post a picture later.

    Angelia-love your brights!
    I am usually a controlled scrapper, but this was so fun and easy, i may be a convert!
    For some reason, my pic won't upload. Must be this nasty snow that's falling!

    Hello, Everyone! I took part in the #3 Mystery Train Ride and I am just now hand quilting with the big stitch. I loved the mystery . . . . . . but, I did it while working through a case of shingles. Shingles messes with your brain! I had lots of stumbling blocks which taught me much about being creative with mistakes. I am following along with this mystery and am loving what I see!

    I just noticed something I forgot to change on day 1 -- we will end on this coming Saturday, not Feb 7th as I mentioned at the beginning of this train ride. When I wrote the directions, I was going to have it end on the later day, but as I was writing everything out, I realized one of the weeks would take about an hour to complete! So, it was rewritten and will end this coming Saturday with the final clue and the "big" reveal.
