One-Day Mystery Returns! 

Merry Mayhem presents: Case #121 - Funky Lap Quilt
©2003 Merry May


Inspector Merry Mayhem's Mysteries make wonderful guild activities!

The Chat Room is down. We apologize, but due to technical difficulties, we have had to abandon our attempts to maintain a chat room for this event. We will try to find an alternate chat facility for our next one-day mystery.

Prize winners of the hourly door prizes can be found here!

PART 3:

Next you will need ALL of your 3 1/2" wide strips of Fabrics A, B and C.

Sew TWO of your Fabric A (light) strips to opposite side of one of your Fabric C (Dark #1) strips. Repeat with your remaining Fabric C strip and TWO additional strips of Fabric A. Press seams toward Fabric C (Dark #1).

Sew your Fabric B (medium) strips to opposite sides of EACH remaining Fabric A (light) strip; press seams toward Fabric B.

Cut your Fabric A-C-A strip sets into a total of TWENTY (20) segments, each 3 1/2" wide by (about) 9 1/2".

Cut your Fabric B-A-B strip sets into a total of FORTY (40) segments, each 3 1/2" wide by (about) 9 1/2".

Combine the above segments to make a total of TWENTY 9-Patch blocks. Each block should measure about 9 1/2" square, but don't worry about precision too much as far as the final size goes.

At 1 p.m. U.S. Eastern Time, GO ON TO PART 4: It's Not What You Think!
