I love all the layouts and colors shown! I really like the circle layout that NZ made.

Finishing up Merry Mayhem's Mystery and then I will get back to this.

I don't have clue #6 started, or #5 done for my alternate colorway, but had to put some units up anyway!

I am going to break up the ending three steps:

1. Make the green/yellow/neutral hourglass blocks and the sashing units, and the border units.
2. Put together the sashing strips, the inner/outer borders, and the blocks.
4. Put the center together and sew on the borders.

I know now I will feel better if all the units are just ready to construct at the end, instead of stopping--oh, now I need to piece the sashings, or piece the borders....

I don't think the fabric I got for backing and binding will work, so we will see at the end.

Right now, I am still on Clue 6. All cut but not sewn.

Here is what I have so far. [ATTACH=CONFIG]564751[/ATTACH]

Pretty KrisB. I am just starting clue 6 as I was sick all week. I got twisted and have some greens on the wrong side of the hourglass ... I need to double check and sew the same consistently, I guess. I keep mistyping and writing clue sick so perhaps I need a little more recovery.

I do love the reveal and am anxious to see all the variations that may show up.

Pagzz, I realized I needed to have the neutral on top when I sewed th 2 triangles together. Maybe that will help you.

OK here we go again..... I tried her way and since I messed up the green hour glass blocks I ended up with this pattern and I also was thinking maybe I like the melon colored star that shows on the single block. If I make it I may make the single block 4 times. That doesn't make much sense when I type it. lol. But I think I know what I mean. Remember I am making a topper (4 blocks. )O M G my head is spinning. Time for a break. lol. Have fun with your blocks. They are really looking good everyone. I'm so glad I kinda followed her colors. I would never have laid it out if I hadn't.

Love those coral corners!

pieced the big yellow blocks into 1/2 square triangles adding a little aboriginal fabric Rob brought from Australia.
I came out with extra purple trirex, and had to make two neutral 4 patches. Pretty good

the purples look blue in this image
38 X 60 unsewn. I might change it a little bit, I don't like to go over 40" quilts on the banister.

Bonnie always says take what you want, change the rest, she doesn't mind.
I like it, it will hang from the loft bannister

Love EVERYONE'S colors! So much fun!!!

I have made some decisions.

I was going to do a red / white fussy cut print for the yellow squares, but finding one I wanted was going to mean ordering online and hoping the colors would work, not to mention the print. I wanted white background w/ red an over all print makes the red look pink, from a distance didn't want that, so I decided the black and white cat print would make a great yellow.

I didn't have enough so I'll get more of that this week locally.

I am changing out the center from the 4 patch to either a pinwheel or a square in a square, the pinwheel would be so much easier a handful of magic 8's and wham bam done. Either way it will be from the dark teal and darkest black, grounding the center and hopefully "popping" the light b/c cat fabric.

And I am going to make it 3 x 4.

Still deciding about the last hourglass block, whether to make it an hourglass, if so changing the yellow to the same red as the constant star or ?????

KalQ, LOVE that layout
