It looks like it says,"The answer is obvious", to me.You can see it if you pull your eyes at the corners, so that you force yourself to squint.

I made a window template out of a piece of paper, it was easier to see the letters....The answer is obvious and it is written backwards.

fivepaws 08-24-2011 07:56 AM

Makes me dizzy. I see the T but had to stop looking.

linhawk 08-24-2011 09:32 AM

Congratulations!!! How long did you work on it?

Perhaps 5 minutes.

Funny story though. I'm at work right now. I took it out for a smoke break and one of the Engineers was there with me. I gave him his own copy to play with. Smoke break was quickly interrupted by pouring rain!!! When I came in I sat down and immediately it hit me that I needed it in the mirror (the clue was I knew the 2nd two letters of the top line were H and T - and no words end in H & T ... but backwards .... ).

So I walked over to the ladies room which took me past the Engineers desk so I told him "we need a mirror". He followed me ... TO the ladies room!! I had to scoot him out and tell him "Go find your own mirror!!". He was just blindly following me!!

I bought some paperbacks and thought I remember some words that end in ht..... I fought with myself trying to think.... but ......

"quilting" is not in the puzzle. If you would like to 'see' the letters, you can look at the top of the second page of this thread. There is a 'highlighted ' image there that show the letters.

I knew that I needed a mirror. 'REFLECT' is the first word in the instructions! But I didn't print and the mirror didn't help from the screen (I tried backing away but that didn't help!) Great puzzle!

flowerjoy 08-25-2011 07:27 AM

hahahaha... funny story.

Forever!!!!!

SuziBoutique 08-26-2011 05:17 PM

I can only see the T and with the letters outlined, I still can't make out the rest of the letters. It gives me a headache.

frugalfabrics 08-26-2011 05:23 PM

it's like one of those 3D pictures...I love looking at them and then all of a sudden you are in the middle of them F L O A T I N G around...lol

jpthequilter 08-26-2011 09:22 PM

I don't know about the rest of y'all, but I see a little boat with a flag flying from the left end?

Have a look at this post. CLICK HERE It shows the letters highlighted. The sentence is in mirror image so, a mirror will help you see the letters and words in the correct way.

qbquilts 08-30-2011 06:06 PM

I never would have figured it out.

Yooper32 12-10-2013 04:28 AM

I am 81 and 3/4's , have had cataract surgery and my near sight is zilcho, but I can see the message and read it. I am afraid to think what that says about me.

lockesnest 12-10-2013 04:43 AM

Jeepers, I sure hope you don't try to make this into a quilt! LOL

hamchips88 12-10-2013 04:46 AM

"THE ANSWER IS OBVIOUS" is what it says if you use a mirror you can see it
