    Talking I Did It - Mystery Quilt #1

    First of all let me just say that CJ is a saint. I could have never done this tutorial without her. I could not have followed it from a book even. I needed her simple, basic instructions and the photos. My wallhanging is not perfect, it's not even close. However, I am still proud that I finished it and it at least looks like it's supposed to (as long as you look at it from a distance and not up close). The fabric it's laying on is what I plan on using for the back and to protect my "mystery" from the dirty picnic table.

    CJ,
    Please take your time on starting the next one. Let me relish the joy of actually finishing something. LOL This was by far the hardest thing I have EVER sewn in my life. Me and little pieces of fabric are a dangerous combination. I truly did love it once I got into it though.
