    Holiday Greetings to each of you! I'm wishing you and yours a Holiday Season full of joy and also hope your New Year is filled with the life you love.
    I have all of step one completed except trimming about a fourth of the hourglass squares. Step 2 is completed. The rest are still waiting in line for their turn. It will be after Christmas!! I am amazed at what has been accomplished. And I also wonder how you've done it at this time of year!

    Thanks Sadiemae. I just looked at my design wall and the 2 mocked up, 1 light, 1 dark, and sure enough I had one point wrong on each of them. Sure glad I haven't gotten any further on them yet
    Happy Holidays to all!

    I've got 6 of each dark and neutral done, and still have to really watch which way they go. I'm thinking that I'll do all the lights, then all the darks instead of doing one of each at a time. Then I won't have to worry so much about getting them the wrong direction. It will be kind of rote after a little while! LOL

    I'm pretty much following Bonnie's colors, however, since I haven't done any with red yet, I'm leaning towards burgandy tones with splashes of red within that color field. Thanks for asking.

    Hope everyone will try to post pictures of their progress. Thank you Bookworm. It is very hard to get mixed up so pay attention to which way the hourglass goes. I am still trying to decide on my pinks. Back to my sewing.

    Yeah! I got 88 of my HST done for step 3. I am using triangulations that I bought from someone on here a long time ago, but this is the first time I have used it. I wish I had thought about this with the QST lol. I love that it tells you where to cut so that you don't even have dog ears. I don't think it will take me long to make the rest... just some time alone. I was supposed to do more today but the kids wanted to play this or that... I tell ya twister is fun when you fall on the kids lol. We had a blast today and I got a little sewing done. All in all a good day.

    MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!!!
