Clue 7 of the 2nd Annual Project QUILTING Mystery Quilt Along

January 3, 2020 by persimondreams 7 Comments

This is it!  The final clue for Project QUILTING Mystery Quilt Along is revealed!

Each day for seven days I’ll be posting a new clue at noon CST.  By the end of the week you’ll have all the clues needed to create a cute little mini quilt that will inspire you through the 11th season of Project QUILTING.

Yesterday I had you cut out all the background fabrics.  Today we’re going to use that up.  There is one more thing you need to cut.

Shelf

Fabric (brown … for the bookshelf)

(2) 3.5″ x 32.5″ strips

Sew the two strips together to create (1) 3.5″ x 64.5″ strip.

Lay it all out

If you have a design wall I recommend using it here.  You can also lay this out on a table or floor.  At this point I find it easy to lay it all out so I don’t mix things up.

Once it’s layout start sewing it together!

  • Sew a 12.5″ x 12.5″ background square to the Clue 1/6 Block.  Press towards the background fabric.
  • Sew the 4.5″ x 16.5″ background rectangle to the Clue 2/6 Block.  Press towards the background fabric.
  • Sew the 6.5″ x 8.5″ background rectangle tot eh Clue 3/6 Block.  Press towards the background fabric.
  • Sew a 12.5″ x 12.5″ background square to the Clue 4/6 Block.  Press towards the background fabric.
  • Sew the 4.5″ x 12.5″ background rectangle to the Clue 5/6 Block.  Press towards the background fabric.
  • Sew a 2.5″ x 24.5″ strip to the Clue 1/6 Block Strip.  Press towards the background fabric.
  • Sew a 2.5″ x 24.5″ strip to the Clue 5/6 Block Strip.
  • Keep sewing all the vertical block/background strips until they are all together.
  • The final piece to sew on is the 3.5″ x 64.5″ bookshelf strip.  Press towards the bookshelf.

Voila!  The mystery quilt is revealed – a shelf full of thread spools!  I hope you enjoyed this mystery quilt along!  Now finish up your quilt and link it up below!

    Thanks Kim, I really enjoy it, you had me guess until the second last clue. That’s when I worked it out.
