There's good news and bad news from my sewing room this week. The good news is that I have been busy joining together all those many blocks for the Modern Quilt Studio 2023 Summer Camp Mystery, and I now have a finished quilt top! The bad news is that the designers of the mystery quilt (Weeks Ringle and Bill Kerr of Modern Quilt Studio) have asked us to refrain from posting photos of our quilts/tops until the official reveal date of September 1st. I'm going to give a little sneak peek in the meantime. It doesn't really look much different than earlier posts sharing some of the blocks on the background fabric.

Because this quilt top is finished, I'm finally going to include it in my stash report. I used a total of 7 yards in this top, and there was no new fabric added this week. I'm back in the black!

Kate's 15 Minutes to Stitch Challenge at Life in Pieces has us tracking how many days each week we get in at least 15 minutes of quilting time. I spent the early part of the week assembling the mystery quilt, then switched over to some projects for the guild's Christmas fair.

Wow, Julie, I can't wait to see the whole top - the blocks are really stunning!
