I was able to get all of my clue 1 & 2 units done over the weekend - retreats are great for that!
Regarding the requests to refrain from sharing quantities and sizes - those are the backbones of the pattern Bonnie plans to sell - and misinformation is rampant online.
Going to the source is the best way to get the actual instructions.
So many of the people on the FB group do not know who Bonnie is or where to find her blog, they just found a great group of quilters, so lots of confusion and well-meaning folks trying to direct the newbies while following the rules as well as the folks who just want to share what they (think they) know to be helpful. I feel sorry for her moderators during MQ time - it is a circus over there! LOL
