In the two days I have started this blog, I have found it to be.............interesting?
I am sure of a few things......
I must learn more about how to post photos.
I need to learn more of the "ins and outs" concerning posting links.
I am NOT as tech savvy as I once had thought?!?!?!?!
So, here is one of the real reasons I started this blog.......Bonnie Hunter's mystery quilt, Easy Street!
I admit I have only been "serious"ly quilting for about 2 years now, and this is my very first mystery quilt to ever participate in. I also have to admit I have been lurking on quilt blogs and have enjoyed seeing other's work for a VERY long time now, and am excited to have created my own quilting blog. We will see how it goes?
I decided to go with a patriotic color scheme as I will be donating this quilt to Quilts of Valor via alyciaquilts.blogspot.com
Here are my 4 patches ready to go!

Here are those perky geese, also ready to go! I had never used Bonnie's recommended method for making flying geese with the EZ Angle Ruler, and EZ Angle Companion ruler, but, I may be sold!  It's a MYSTERY! BWAHAHAHAHA!
Thanks for your encouragement!
Kevin the Quilter

Im new to blogging also, and yours look great! Love you colors. Happy adventures.Congratulations1
ReplyDeleteIt looks like you're a fine quilter and blogger. I'll be anxiously watching for updates on your progress.
ReplyDeleteI think your Primary colours will work well. This is my first Mystery too.
ReplyDeletewhat a delicious fabric combination ;-), I love the background fabric with the snowflakes on it , yummy
ReplyDeleteHave fun. Looks like you are having no problems with keeping up.
ReplyDeleteBwahh haa haa - you crack me up, and I think that Scarlet was in on it too ;-)
ReplyDeleteNice Combinations of fabric.
ReplyDeleteGood for you, Mr. Kevin! I too, started blogging after being so inspired through the sharing ways of fellow quilters online. I wanted to participate in an online swap 3 years ago, and I'm still here having fun. Keep up the good work, I do like your colors.
ReplyDelete:-}pokey
Nice colours!!
ReplyDeleteHappy Mystery.
I do love yellow anything! I, too, started a blog because I knew Bonnie's new mystery was coming up. I figure if I make things all the time, I should start talking about them to people who may be interested! I still need to get on to the rectangles. Maybe when I'm having a breakdown from all the squaring up if my flying geese. Precision is not my forté. Good luck to you!
ReplyDeleteGreat job on the blog...I had problems with blogger. I have a typepad travel blog but I wanted one strictly for quilting. It does get easier. Key factor for photo uploads...size of photo. Too big and it won't load. Too small and no one can see it, lol. Happy blogging. And, give those BT's scratches behind their ears.
ReplyDeleteI am new to all this also, it sucks yar right in! Love it. good luck with your Blog and Quilting
ReplyDeleteGreat job on your patches and geese. Congrats on starting a blog--it can be challenging can't it.
ReplyDeleteGreat colour choices! It will be fun to see your Easy Street version develop.
ReplyDeleteWelcome to quilt blog land!
I'm new to the blogging thing too. Started mine just to participate in the Linky Party!
ReplyDeleteI love the mustards! Makes me want a hot dog though. I've been collecting mustard/cheddars, along with deep reds and burgundys for a while now for a quilt called "Wine and Cheese". Now that's good eatin'! :) Keep up the great work and I can't wait to see how your quilt comes together!
Your quilt blocks are looking wonderful and how generous of you to make this a quilts of valor donation. I applaud your efforts!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great charity you are donating too!! I look forward to keeping up with your progress!! xoxo
