Wow, hadn't thought about all that until I typed red fabric, lol. Maybe it's time for bed. :-)

Understand why you bought red. lol

Thank you, RT! I was just nuts trying to find the posts for clues. I'm a RT, too! Again, thanks! Life got in the way of that mystery train, but it looks so nifty when done.

Clue # 2 is finished. Like the revised color wave better than the first one. I even have an idea is use those little triangles. These mysteries are great fun. Off to the club car.

My Stash Buster lap quilt is now totally finished. I used some of the leftover 2 1/2" x 4" rectangles and a few of the 2 1/2" strips to make a scrappy binding.

I used a Goodwill sheet for the backing and practiced my FMQ.
