Get a Clue with Nancy Drew

11 12 2015

Any Nancy Drew mysteries fans out there?  My sister, my cousins and I would gobble these books up when we were young.

Now my daughter collects all the ones we threw away, and also the ones that were published before even I was born!

So when Moda produced a line of Get a Clue with Nancy Drew fabric a few years ago, I was intrigued.  How could all these brights work together in a quilt.

This quilt is made from the leftovers from making Maggie’s quilt.  Yes, another where the leftovers were finished before the major quilt.

Simple quilting in each of the blocks in the center part of the quilt.

. . .  and a red diamond quilting pattern in the border.   I’m getting good enough to be able to do this one without marking the lines.

I still have plenty of this fabric left, so I will make a few more small ones like this, and they all will be available in the Marketplace of the Voices in Cloth 2016 show in March of next year.  Click here for more details about that show.

I loved the finished quilt. Glad you will have some smaller renderings for the Market Place. Great job. Pepper
