Wholeheart Mom, today was my first day making string blocks and I didn't think I'd like them, but I really do. Yours are fabulous.

Thank you! I also didn't think I'd like making them, but there is something so addicting about the process... you can't make just one :0)

Oops didn't realize we had two threads going. Here is my step 4. I'm using yellow in place of Red. Hate red but I think the yellow is going to look good with the black/neutral and blue. Yea, today is Friday and clue 5. I'm lovin' my first mystery quilt.

Default Orca Bay Parts 1 - 4

Here is a photo of my Part 1 - 4 blocks. I have not finished cutting all the Part 4 blocks yet, but I do have all 700 triangles cut for Part 5. That way I can piece them a few at a time between my Christmas Baking this week.
