Thanks Judy for another great mystery!!!

Wow and wow again is all I can say. You guys are incredible. I haven't been on this hread for over a month, and just spent a bunch of time reading posts and looking at all your gorgeous quilts. So many thingss to comment on, but everyone seems to have said it all. Only thing I can contribute is I get gas lately for $1.99/gallon but I shop at Fry's Grocery, a Kroger company, and you get points for shopping that can be used at the gas pump. Last time I filled up the end of December I had points to take $1.05 off my gas bill -- woo hoo! But Got the high point count from all the Thanksgiving and Christmas groceries.
I too am not doing the BH mystery. Way too many little pieces, hate working with them. I read the first couple clues and am not a fan. But I do love to look at her scrappies. Someone made a comment that even tho' lots of the gals were unhappy, but there wasn't negitivity on the BH thread --BH posted something in the very beginning about no whinning. So maybe someone is in charge of eliminating negative comments.
So ... 5 days and we are ready to roll again! I am so excited, I love this new quilt and hope you will, too. I have once again designed this so it can be worked in units -- we will make one unit, and you can double, triple, quadruple, or even 6 units to make a king quilt. And those of you who aren't going to start cutting until Saturday -- that is the way to do so. You never know what I am going to use, why cut unless you can use it.
My system to more or less control my scraps is to cut certain thing I use a lot of. If I have a small piece it goes in a box and then when I feel like working on it, I cut squares, 2-1/2'' strips, and 1-1/2'' strips. Then I have all those lovely scrappies when I feel like diving into the boxes of pre-cut scraps.
See you all Saturday morning!

Thanks again Judy for a glorious ride, even though I started after everyone else was finished! Hope to have this one completed before the next one starts. Looks like I might actually be able to do so. Yay!

I'm only going to get the 1st week before we leave for vacation but will have a start. I'll have to play catch-up on February 1 when we get back.
I have done the BH mysteries, did the first 2 steps of this one and decided to wait to see the end. Glad I did, all those pieces are going in the scrap bin. Too busy or maybe just the color combo's but wasn't for me at all.
Just waiting to see what you have up your sleeve this time Judy
