Scrap Buster Mystery Quilt
The 2024 GSQ Mystery Quilt was originally set for an 8-week project. However, we will be doing it over eight months. This gives everyone an opportunity to participate and still work on other projects. It is called a scrap buster. The dark 1 will be your border. This is a clue if you want a cohesive quilt in the end and it does not have to be dark. The final quilt will measure 66” x 84”. Work at your own pace. Please show tops/finished quilts during show and tell as you finish. Enjoy!

*For those who are working on the May set, an error in the instructions was discovered – way back in the January instructions. Those instructions say to make 18 corner units, but it should be 36 corner units. No problem, the pieces were already cut in the first set of instructions, so just put the rest of the units together.
