Super excited for this year's mystery! I recently retired so am really, really hoping to keep up this time around instead of finishing months later.

For anyone who is unsure of their ability to do one of BH's mysteries: Yes, there are a LOT of pieces - I don't think any of them has under 4,000. But her directions are really detailed and she includes many photos. Don't have time to do it all? Print or save the directions (they will be taken down a month or so after the mystery ends) and do a few units each week as posted to be sure you understand that week's process. There will be lots of folks doing the mystery, so there will be a lot people you can lean on for help if you need clarification.

There are threads here - in challenge section , I think, of some of her previous mysteries, as well as quite a few pictures. They will give you an idea as to both Bonnie's mysteries and the support that is at your fingertips. My avatar is one of her past mysteries. The colors suggested for this one ("Easy Street") were purple, turquoise and lime green, I think - but those colors are not in my box! And neutrals, lots of neutrals! Love her idea of neutrals - not just white or white on white, cream, etc., but a range that is anything from stark white to just lighter than a lunch bag, with lots of print on them. If you check Pinterest, look for Quiltville quilts.
