Old Town Mystery Quilt Assembly

 It's been a couple of weeks since the reveal of the Old Town Mystery by Bonnie Hunter.  All of my clues for this quilt have been ready and waiting patiently for me to pay them a little attention. I'm loving this quilt block design and my color combination. 


As you can see, I didn't get much accomplished, just the one quilt block.  But I did manage to get all the blocks laid out on the design boards.  I can now project jump from quilting the Bow-Tie quilt on the frame and piecing the Old Town Mystery.  

The arrows below are pointing to the chain units that I placed in the wrong direction.  I didn't catch the mistake on the top row until after I sewed the row together.  It was fixed and I continued on with the rest of the block.


It's going to be a fun week!  
Let's hope the rest of the blocks go together faster than the first one.  Below was the second time I had to rip out stitches.  😂It always gives me a good chuckle to make such silly mistakes.  How in the world does this happen?

  1. Your color palette worked out so well for this project. Good luck, wishing you no more sessions with your seam ripper as you get the rest of the blocks assembled.

  2. I'm always so surprised when I match the wrong things up like that. It seems so obvious but I guess when you get in the "zone" it's just sew sew sew.

  3. Your color choices are beautiful! May your seam ripper have a nice long vacation as you construct the rest of your blocks.
