I go away for awhile, and come back to talk of nightmares! LOL.
SusanSusan33, I'm behind, too. I have all my HST strips cut, and have been sewing a single one of each pairing. I have them arranged into blocks with the black and yellow, and am now going to sew those into the broken dishes blocks. Once those are done, I will move on to clue #2, and once I figure out my neutrals and a method, I'll go back and finish clue #1. Once again with clue #2, seeing finished units is really helping me understand what sorts of effects I want and don't want.
SunlitenSmiles, your blocks really fit your screen name! So pretty and cheerful.
