The scraps continue to fly in my sewing room. I've finished all the blocks plus a few more to make it bigger in my mystery quilt. As mentioned I didn't want to just slap a border on it as was suggested in the pattern.

Several people have commented on my background, both in class and here on my blog. It is Bella Solid 9900-100. It is one of my favorite solids to use as a background.
