Orca Bay Mystery Quilt-Along
#211
Now I've got my mental image down. I don't have 2" strips, but a huge bag of scraps. So I'm cutting them individually. Using up scraps is my goal, even tho it will take me longer. I've cut and sewn about 50 of them, measuring that I've got it right. 2" squares are tiny, but I love than I can use these stupid little scraps. The scraps annoy me, but I can't throw them out. I'm using navy & Blacks, and off white.

I love your little blocks Caroline S. They are cute and colorful. Mine are very boring and dull. I am disappointed that we are doing more black blocks. I don't have time to cut the full amount of any step right now so am doing portions until I see how things go together. Bonnie has never disappointed me yet with one of her mysteries.

I'm finally IN! - completed my previous project last evening - (except for burying threads) and started just a few of each block this evening - my fav was the blue paper pieced block, Hope to get lots more done tomorrow evening! FUN !
