Downton Abbey Mystery Quilt

The mystery is over.  I finished all the blocks.

Blocks from weeks 4, 5, and 6:

Each week we could choose between two story paths.....or two blocks.  Or do a combo of each.  I never did a combo.  The result of all that choosing is the final layouts will look different for each participant. 

This is the one that best fits the blocks I made:

 I never really loved the fabrics so have chosen to not take the time to finish the quilt.  I'll put the blocks and left over fabric in my give away box.  

I had fun with the mystery.  Ebony did a great job with directions each week. The Facebook group was also fun.  I'm glad I participated.  But now back to my other projects and fabrics I adore!

Women of the Bible Sampler Blocks 17 & 18

Two more blocks that I forgot to post.

Block 17 - Jael

I don't really like this block pattern so I made it scrappy (pattern calls for one fabric for the rail fences) in order to make it happier to me.  It worked.  Still don't love it but at least I like it now.

Block 18 - Tamar

One of my favorite parts of making these blocks is going into my bin of low volume fabrics that I've been collecting this past year and pulling a new one for each block.  This pin fabric was from an Aneela Hoey layer cake I had.  So cute here.

Both Jael and Tamar are 10 inch blocks.

Women of the Bible Sampler Blocks 15 & 16

 Oh boy have I been lax on posting!

Block 15 - Miriam

The construction of this one caused me trouble the first time (turned out 1/4 inch too small) for some reason so I had to remake it. I drew it up in EQ7 and used the measurements from there. All but one part was the same but that one part was enough. 

Block 16 - Deborah

Love the scrappiness of this one!  

Both Miriam and Deborah are 10 inch blocks.
