I have been working on Gyleen's mystery quilt. I think we are up to clue 5. Some of the quilts I've seen have been beautiful. Mine not so much! The nicest thing I can say about this quilt so far is that it is helping me use up my scraps. I believe someone will be glad to receive it anyway because even an ugly quilt will keep you warm.

I've also been working on my ICQC 3 class. I completed the embroidered tree with leaves.

WOW, daffodils so early! I don't believe we will see any in our yard until late March or early April, but I could be wrong. Your ugly quilt is really not that bad. I am making one of these too (on purpose) as a mystery quilt. It starts off with 2.5" blocks, so I'm sewing them together just as they are stacked in my drawer. Only exception is if I pull two of the same print/color. I feel exactly like you in that even an ugly quilt will keep you warm or the fur babies can use it. Your embroidery tree is beautiful.
Well, I think it's quite pretty, so keep sewing. I thought the tree was gorgeous naked, but wow, it sure is even lovelier now.
Too early to say how it will eventually look - I think scrappy quilts sometimes hide their beauty till the end! Thanks for linking up to #scraptastictuesday
My daffodils got buried in 14 inches of snow too and then we had a heat spell and they bloomed. Except they were lying flat on the ground, not dignified like yours. And your quilt is not ugly...its just in its growing phase.
Your scrap quilt is wonderful! I don't know how you can think it isn't. The colors work together, and yes, we ALL love using up scraps. Good job!
