part 6 of Orca Bay Mystery

Look what turned up in my vegetable garden.............................
All finished.....56 Ohio Stars....of course I had to actually finish part one!!! So now I feel double delight.
My wee 'orange friend ' from last time was nowhere to been seen, but I did find these marigolds in my wee vege patch and the pumpkin leaves work well for plates for my blocks don't you think?
This one is for you Rhonda , check out the square top right hand corner....same brown fabric you are using!! I used the same fabric on this table runner........


now for proof I did make all 56 blocks.....................................!
Now don't these wee sweeties go well with my blocks?

Wanna pop over with me to see what everyone else is doing......?

Thank you for taking the time to stop by my corner of the world :-)

    Wow your blocks look amazing! I'm hoping to do some sewing this afternoon. I haven't started clue 5, but I think I will do some of 6 as the blocks looks so much fun. Love the kitties too, I'd love to have 2 cats so they could be friends but it was a battle with hubby to get the one!

    Your blocks look great! Love the way you presented them. If I took mine outside they would have floated away. It's raining so hard here in my corner of Canada

    Your blocks are looking great! Loved seeing them 'blooming' in the veg patch and the cute kitties snuggling! It really looks like they were the colour palette inspiration :)

    ooooh I love your colours and how you have laid them out in the vegetable garden to be photographed. Well done on getting them all done so quickly. I am just a little over half way there :)

    Sure is. Does yours have a dark brown background or is it black? Mine has a black background, but it def. is the same print. I love how this fabric feels and handles too. : ) Looks great in your blocks and the table runner too. : )

    Oh my gosh! Love the way you display your blocks :)

    Still a long way to go with mine. Had only cut about half of clue #1 and sewn maybe 20...
    On vacation/family reunion until Jan 8, 2012 so, by then the Mystery will probably be over. For now I'm enjoying everybody else's progress.

    Have been checking your posts and you're doing a great job. Looking forward to see your finished quilt.

    Your blocks look scrumptious and your veggie patch 'almost' makes me wish for spring, just not all the heat and rain that goes with it here in the MidWest! Wonderful job you've done with your blocks, you can definitely be proud of all your hard work - can hardly wait to see your finished quilt ;-)
