    Oh, I am so tempted to shop my stash and see...
    This would be so fun!

    Whoohoo! And here you all are!

    We haven't had a moment to catch our breath here let alone pick out fabric... but it's on the list. Happy to have landed in the right place.

    Is anyone else tempted to put together the HST's ahead of time? For my size (lap) there are going to be 40 of them and I will be cutting them larger and then trimming them down.

    What do you think? OK to do ahead of time?

    I didn't realize there was more posted. Will have to go have a look see.

    What with my fabric stack continuing to grow, I'm scared to commit to cutting. Plus one year, I did all the pre-cutting... worked up all the blocks then realized I hated my colors. I was about to piece it today as I've been doing a lot of fabric dyeing and I think I might toss some color at it. :-)

    Yes, WendyMcD....fabric requirements and cutting instructions were sent out to those that signed up, about 2 weeks ago. Make sure you are signed up!

    Yes, Watson, I’m very tempted. I’m also doing lap size. I think I will make them tomorrow.

    I goofed and chose a directional print so some of my hsts are going to be upside down. Oh well. I’m on a fabric moratorium so had to shop from my stash and that’s the one that worked with my other choices the best. I’m doing this mystery mostly for therapy and stash busting so I’m going to stick with what I already cut. I’m really looking forward to Jan 1.

    I emailed Merry and she said there will be one more set of instructions prior to NYD.

    I could only use stash so...

    I’m using the pale green as the background instead of the white on white.

    I think that will look great.

    Those are some cute lambs.

    Tothill...I guess I'd better wait for the next instructions and not jump the gun.
