Marble Mystery

I've been doing the Marble Mystery Quilt Along with Cheryl of Meadow Mist Designs.  I love the pace of Cheryl's mysteries and have really enjoyed sewing along, especially after having sat out the last several years.  I only posted my progress once, but I am excited to now have a finish!


All the fabrics are Island Batik.  The background is solid white, and there are three shades of orange: Peach, Marmalade, and Dandelions in Pumpkin.  I bought the yellow fabric from my local quilt shop; it's from the Vintage Charm collection.  


I'm not sure it photographs well, especially on the sunny days I've had recently, but I'm really happy with it.  I had it at work to take pictures and a coworker who saw it said it looked "like sunshine in quilt form."  I love that!


Cheryl always has such great patterns, both for her mysteries and her other patterns.  One of the neatest things about the mysteries is the sheer number of people who sew along, which means a huge number of color and fabric combinations!  Cheryl will host a finish parade of all the Marble Mystery quilts that have been sent to her next Monday.  Be sure to visit her blog on Monday, March 10th to see them all!
