NYE Mystery Quilt

I finally got the NYE Mystery Quilt I'm doing cut out. Yes, I'm behind. I was so busy the last 2 weeks, I just today had time to do this much. I can't wait to get started sewing!
I am making it crib sized and already have it spoken for.
The focus fabric is dinosaurs on a red background. Fabric 1, the "Pop", is a dotmatrix pattern in blue/ green/ black. Fabric 2 is background fabric in a light/ med green with tiny stars tone on tone. Fabric 3 is the medium. It is a medium greenish blue all over tone on tone pattern. I've a green plaid for the back and am considering the star print for the borders, if it works. I will have to wait and see what happens.

Block M-2

This block is called "Duff's Bluff".
I am doing it in a light blue and white.
As of right this minute, I am planning on hand piecing the blocks in this quilt. I will more than likely join thee blocks by machine. It will be my first handpieced quilt.
I figure the pieces are small enough so it will be easier.

My sewing machines are a Brother 5600 portable and a 1954 Singer console.

Dear Baby Jane

I'm starting a Baby Jane. It will be completly from stash/ scraps. There will be no rhyme or reason to the fabrics in each block. I will use white muslin for the backgrounds but, even that will be from stash and scraps. I will eventually need to buy more muslin, so it will be a real scrappy quilt.

Blocks will be picked randomly by asking my DH to pick a letter and then a number. I hope this way to get a good mix of easy and hard blocks. Every 6th block will be a border triangle.



My Dh's first block choice is M-2.
