Finally, I had some time to work on Clue# 4 and am now 1/4 way through that Clue! I have all the orange pieces cut (and a few actually sewn) for Clue #2 but I am not very far along on Clue #3. Because I’m behind, I haven’t yet suffered through any shortages of orange fabric.
This process has reinforced my belief that I am a much happier person when I get to spend some time sewing.

We get to put blocks together in Part 5 using the 4 patches from Part 1 and the hourglass units from Part 3, plus some added squares and rectangles. If your day will include some time in your sewing room, I hope it is enjoyable. If you are traveling, shopping, cooking or visiting (or all of the above), I hope that you can stop from time to time and appreciate all that this Season offers. Happy Holidays to all.

Since we are here in western New York under a blizzard warning, I hope to get my presents wrapped and some block constructing. I enjoy making blocks even if it takes a little longer rather than just unit after unit after unit of the same thing. Way behind in my clue one for patches but will make them as I go. Please everyone stay safe your Christmas presents can stay wrapped for an extra few days if necessary. Stay home stay warm and may you all have a merry Christmas if you celebrate and happy Hanukkah if you celebrate that! If you don’t celebrate either then warm wishes to you as well !

I am thankful that the aqua features so prominently, as I was counting on it to lighten up my black-background quilt. I have lots of aqua in my stash, so maybe can come up with that many different ones, since I have less variety in other areas of the quilt. Happy Holidays and Happy Sewing!
