Ho Ho ! , Love a Mystery. Usually do the Planet Patchwork one on New Years day but don’t know if they will be doing it this year–sooo this will do quite well. Thank You.!
How fitting. A mystery quilt to start the mystery of what is to happen in the coming year. I’m sure if it is anything like your other designs it will be awesome. I’m looking forward to participating. Thank you and Merry Christmas.
Denise, your quilts are always so much fun! I can hardly wait and I’ll be ready to do some sewing for ME after all the Christmas presents I’ve been making for OTHERs
I am looking forward to an easy project for this time of year and a pattern for possible use for next year for 5 lap quilts for friends at Christmas time. I have tons of that kind of fabric and would love to whittle that down to a manageable size. Thanks Denise – your mysteries are always fun and so rewarding. Your generosity knows no bounds.
It’s listed in the cutting info – all strips are cut WOF (width of fabric) from selvage edge to selvage edge. While most fabrics are between 40″ and 42″ wide, some fabrics have larger selvages so you don’t necessarily get as much “useable” fabric minus the selvage edge – that’s why I say my cutting measurements are based on at least 40″ of useable fabric (not including selvage).
I have all my fabrics ready and then realized that I have a conflict with the new date. I will not be near a computer until the afternoon. Will the clues still be up? I have cut my fabrics in reds, whites and blues to make a quilt of valor and am very excited!!
I have my fabrics cut, stacked and ready to sew on Saturday!! My first mystery with you and glad you had to move the date to mid-month! Will there be a place to post fabric choices and/or finished quilts?
Correct – you can’t print from the preview screen (or it won’t print correctly) because you haven’t really downloaded the file and truly opened it. Download the file first then print.
Just what I was looking for. I like to make baby quilts that are big enough for floor, car and Mom to wrap up in too. This will be just right for the baby due in July. Great Grand Baby. Probably butterflies because I do not know if a girl or a boy at this point.
I didn’t get to work on “Just Down the Road from 1414 Mystery Quilt Lane” today but I peaked
This is just what I’ve been looking for.
A quick and easy quilt to make with my eight year old grand daughter
I think we will have lots of fun working on this together.
It will be her first quilt. I wonder if she will get the bug.
Quick, help me hide my stach. LOL
Thank you .
I was able to keep up most of the day yesterday. But had to take several hours off to go watch grandsons play in 2 basketball games. I have enough blocks done to get a feel for what it is going to look like and had planned to finish Sunday afternoon…..but a nap was needed, some good football games on….so no progress yet today! I HOPE to work in it tomorrow and get a picture posted! Wish me luck! A VERY good pattern! Love it! Thank you for sharing….and I plan to participate whenever you have another mstery!
I waited until I finished Clue #8 before looking at #9. Love the layout and my fabric choices turned out great. Thanks for the mystery, Denise. Love it!
My sis and I did this with you on the 18th and both of us really love the pattern! Sis already got another one cut out and labeled. We will get the picture to you as soon as I can. Thanks again for a great weekend!
When I click on the sidebar for the Flickr group, it says it is a closed group, by invitation only. Is this correct? I have requested to join so I can post a picture of my quilt. It was a great mystery. Thanks!!!!
I finally have a finished 1414 Mystery Quilt Lane quilt. I’m pretty sure I finished the top in January of 2014. But it has been in a drawer waiting to be quilted all this time. I had it machine quilted a couple weeks ago and now it has binding and a label. This is going to be my year to finish UFOs.

I’ve never done a mystery quilt, although quite a few counted cross stitch ones before. Thanks

Brilliant!!! Can’t wait! Thank you.
For me it will be a 1-5-14 mystery as I work on Saturday! As long as the clues will still be available on 1-5.
I just put it on my calendar. Thank you!
Sounds interesting. Sure hop I’m finished with Bonnie Hunter’s mystery quilt so I can play along with yours. I do love a good mystery. Thanks
No HST, am soooo into this. I might try to get together with a friend and try to do this on our first weekend of the new year.

Love mysteries and the idea of a one-day one! Fun after the holiday busyness!

LOVE Mystery quilts, thanks Merry Christmas and HAppy New Year!!
thanks, I am ready for another mystery.
Fabrics pulled. I will still need a background but can pick up a neutral one easily enough. I will be ready!
Colors look great – I knew you’d be ready and waiting. 🙂
What a great name for your Mystery. I have the file ready so I can start filling it when you start sharing. Thanks.
Penny Hadd
You can count me in on this one also. Hope you have a Merry Christmas and now a Happy 2014 Year.
Always ready for a mystery 🙂
Should the cuts for fabric 5 be that big? should they be 4.4 instead of 45? I am not cutting yet but in just looking it over they looked very big!!
yes – the period on my keyboard needs a cleaning I think since it’s been sticking. I corrected it. Thanks.
I meant 4.5 not 4.4….
Thanks so much Denise. I am really looking forward to making your mystery quilt….mmmmmm…..now to decide what fabrics I will use.
Thank-you, Denise! For this mystery pattern AND all you share! Happy New Year!
Pre-cutting done!
How long did you cut your strips for borders and others except those to be sub cut.
40″?

Thanks so much!!!
I would like to play!

Great – one of these days I need to figure out what fabric I want to use for mine.
What time does the Mystery start?
Start time is listed on the yardage page
Enjoy mysteries and looking forward to the start of this one.
I have my fabrics cut, stacked and ready to sew on Saturday!! My first mystery with you and glad you had to move the date to mid-month! Will there be a place to post fabric choices and/or finished quilts?
Yay! Early clues!
LOL – I hadn’t even finished the blog post about them – you must have been stalking me! 🙂
I will start in the morning! Thanks, Denise.
Thanks So much xx Nessa
Clue #1 and #2 done. Moving onto #3. You’re right: simple. Thanks!
You’re on a roll!
I am in the pacific time here, I got started around 5:30 my time. Love it so far!
Thanks – glad to hear it.
What a wonderful way to print the clues. Thanks.
Clues 1 & 2 come up as blank when I try to print–on the print preview
Correct – you can’t print from the preview screen (or it won’t print correctly) because you haven’t really downloaded the file and truly opened it. Download the file first then print.
Thank you for the paper saving on the clues. Wish all mystery quilts woulddothis.
I’m so excited this is my first quilt. I’m using navy, teal, green and white. Thanks so much for such easy to follow instrucins.
Finally, the day of!
Nice! I like this pattern very much. Thanks!
Denise, Thank you so much for this mystery. Hope you are feeling better.
This quilt turned out really pretty. I’ll need to go shopping for fabric. Thank you for sharing! It is really kind of you
Thanks so much for this pattern! I am a caregiver and cannot get to sew it today but have all my fabrics ready and will get it done little by little.
Thank-you, Denise! It is a treasure! TY, TY, TY!
Many thanks Denise
Love it.
had a great time today. think I will make a fabric change before finishing this..

fabulous….love the design. The fussy cutting is just awesome for show-casing special prints.
Thank you for this creation….hugs and stitches
Great design.Thanks!

You can upload photos directly to my Flickr group – there’s a link in the blog sidebar.

Yes, you have to be approved first.
All done and photo awaiting your approval. I probably should have used blue instead of green but done is done! Thanks, Denise!
I have finished the 1414 mystery and ready to post a picture!
