Ms. Hunter makes her living through her blog, web site and pattern sales among other ways, so she has to expect us to honor her requests. I think she uses us as testers for her Mystery Quilts and I,for one, am pleased to do so!

I've finished clue 3! Clue 4 well underway and shouldn't take long. Then I can start putting blocks together.
My mind is churning with ideas about the rest of the pieces. Anyone who wants to discuss it is welcome to PM me. Or, I was wondering, what would you think about starting an ancillary Bonnie Hunter mystery speculation thread for those who enjoy talking about it? That would eliminate the problem of people who want to avoid speculations stumbling over such posts. Just a thought.

I’m all for guessing on this thread….here is my guess….I’m thinking that clue 5 block is the center of a larger star burst using the HST’s and clue 1 & 2 bits…lol…. That would be a cool look, I think..

I finally have a little something to share. I only started today and launched straight into making the hourglass units. I made gazillion for Bear Branch so these were simple. In my pic, the units aren’t sewn together and part 1 4-patches aren’t done yet. That’s for tomorrow. The light will be a constant but the rest will be scrappy, or semi-scrappy as I need to still get more batik F8s or F4s. Although I’m not happy with the variety, I just couldn’t wait to begin a block once I saw it. The LQS recommended the white with swirls when I was leaning to a more solid piece. They were right. I’m very happy with it.
I'm going to take my time and enjoy it as I’m very pleased with the mystery so far.
