Whew!!!
I'm all caught up!! Yay, me!! LOL!

I'm hoping that the yellow and green part is as simple as the HST's or the 4-patches. If so, I should be able to knock this out and finish the top...

Somehow, my angles were just the teensy bit too wide... just enough to make the smaller triangles not line up together. Plus the GO has those little corners trimmed on the bigger triangle and it just...

Well, in the first clue, Bonnie did specifically mention how many 3 1/2" squares to make if you're using a single color... but not with this batch of 4-patches.

I'm off to the LQS after work today...

Yes, you DO need to spin the seams. Bonnie specifically does mention that in her post. Right under a pic of the 4-patch, she says, "And you know what to do with the back! SPIN,
Quilters, SPIN!"

Well, I got all my pieces for Clue 2 cut out... then hubby had knee surgery, so that means no time for stitching.
When I'm home from work, it's been fetch & carry & baby him. Fortunately for both of...

In spite of the fact that I spent much of my day doing "farm stuff", I did manage to cut out the side triangles in my "constant" color. Hopefully, tomorrow, I can get the center triangles cut. Then,...

Guess I know what I'll be doing tonight and tomorrow.

Now, I'm trying to remember if I have the AccuQuilt die for this... I know I have the TriRecs tool, but the die would definitely be faster. :D

This is the PERFECT way to use up those fabrics that were "donated" or that you look at now and say "What was I thinking?!?!?" As Bonnie says, "If it's still ugly, you didn't cut it small enough!"

I agree with Kassaundra - the very light purple is probably TOO light; and the yellow-y green is probably too similar to your yellows. Bonnie did mention in her post that the greens need to tend more...

This will be my first mystery quilt as well. I already have most of the "alternate" rulers - Easy Angle, Companion Angle, and the Tri-Recs - so I'm good there. Plus, I have several AccuQuilt dies...
