Default Clue 2 Done

Now on my way to the club car to check out the goodies. I will bring some jalapeno sausage, teriyaki sausage, cheese and crackers to snack on. May go well with some of Jaba's goodies.

The blocks on the left were my test blocks using the traditional method. Way too slow. So I studied Judy's method in the last picture, calculated the strip width and finished those half square triangles in a jiffy. It takes longer to square and trim the blocks than creating them.

I like the fact that Clue 3 will be posted next Saturday. It gives me a chance to complete the quilt top I am working on and perhaps I can finish quilting the first Mystery Train Quilt.

Have not seen the Quilt Inspector for a while. Sneaky thing that she is, she may be stowed away somewhere. Be on alert you all. She does prefer dark fabrics as her hair shows best on it.
