Each of the 69 quilts are the same pattern but how each person chose and put their colors together, make each one such a unique piece of art. All 69 quilts are now posted for your enjoyment at http://www.americanquilter.com/publications/readers_contests.php?id=1&year=2011, where you can read about the quiltmakers and their inspiration. When you have some time to spare, take the time to go through and look at all the quilts. It is truly amazing!
This one I absolutely love how the pattern just runs into the border. This was made
Marlene Oddie of College Place, Washington, which she titled Bordered Beyond the Block:.
Marlene has graciously offered to share her instructions to make the extra extended border for this mystery quilt pattern. Contact Marlene via her blog at http://kissedquilts.blogspot.com/

I participated in this mystery quilt challenge and it was both fun and educational. Choosing the colors was hard without knowing what the quilt pattern would look like. I've looked at the quilts posted online and it is so interesting to me to see all the different things people did. I think it's a pretty cool pattern too.
