| What is a mystery quilt? Billie
states, "I have many times said that all quilts are a mystery. Oh, you know
the pattern and you have picked the fabrics out accordingly but, until it is finished,
anything can happen. You really do not know what the quilt will finally look like.
When you are making a mystery quilt you do not know what you are making. You
start one without all of the usual information - such as a picture of the quilt."
 How
can you use the book:
There are several ways: 1)
True mystery quilt. Look through the quilt pattern section to find the size
quilt you would like to make. No peeking at the illustrations. Look at the yardage
and buy your fabric. You cannot take the book with you to shop. Cut your fabrics
following the directions in the clues. Sew. Enjoy the results. 2)
Sort of a mystery quilt. Look through the illustrations of the quilts and
select one you like. Look at the yardage and buy your fabric. You cannot take
the book with you and do not look at the quilt picture again. Cut your fabrics
following the directions in the clues. Sew. Is it the same as you remembered it?
3) Like any other quilt pattern book. Look through
the illustrations of the quilts and select one you like. Look at the yardage in
the weapons list and buy your fabric. It is OK to take the book with you to the
quilt shop. Cut your fabrics following the directions in the clues. Sew. Enjoy
the results.
