SBQ for March 22nd
Today's SBQ was suggested by Carol and is:
Have you ever participated in a needlework mystery? If so, why did you decide to do the mystery? What appealed to you about it? Did you enjoy it? If you have not done a mystery, would you ever do one?
I have participated in a lot of mysteries. The first one was Curtis Boehringer’s Needlework Woman mystery (or whatever it was called). I participated in that one through an MSN group I no longer belonged to and I did it because it was a fun way to do a stitchalong. It was fun, but by the time most of us were ready for Part III, there was a problem with the availability of Part IV, so I found all the parts sold together on Ebay, but other members weren’t so lucky, and I lost interest.
Another two mysteries I participated in were done in Yahoo groups. I did it because friends of mine were doing it and I thought it would be fun. It was a lot of fun, even though I was usually quite behind.
Last but certainly not least, I have belonged for the past three years to several of Martina Weber’s (Chatelaine) mysteries. I have enjoyed them even when I wasn’t stitching along. I guess, for me, what makes a mystery fun is if you are happy with the resulting design. Since I have thus far liked just about everything Martina has designed, I can jump into her mysteries without a second thought.
I am still working on Mystery VIII, haven’t started Mystery IX, and probably might not start it until next year, but I have a lot of fun seeing the progress others are making and watching the design unfold. I will be participating in many, many more of her mysteries in the future.
