AnngelAnne this made me laugh so hard and then I came to the part of a 62 yo 5 ft. naked woman running outside in the snow and I lost it. Thanks for making me healthier by laughing out loud and my mind id busy making pictures. You are an awes0ome woman and I appreciate your writing skills.

Hi Everyone, I placed# 8 aside for a bit and decided to come along for another ride..
I cut my strips on the "Go" then sewed & pressed them then cross cut them using the go and for the first time ever I have almost 99% perfect blocks..I was very pleased.. My color isn't as dark as others here & it's a Christmas fabric but I think I can use regular fabric for the rest of the Mystery..I'm ready & on time for Saturday...Yay!

Whew! Just caught up reading the thread! Ya'll have been busy! I had to wait to go shopping at our LQS to get my constant dark, brown. Due to weather & road conditions, they were closed. We've had sleet, freezing rain & now it's snowing again! We're expecting a hard freeze tonight, treacherous road conditions. Great time to being home quilting. I've got my 4 patches done in chocolate brown & cream.....all 96 blocks. This is between getting a show quilt done & now just got commissioned to do another one that has to be in the mail in 3 weeks! That one's going to have a lot of custom quilting on it too!
I'll bring a double chocolate chip bundt cake for tonights party. I'll be really ready for that chocolate wine by then!

Clue 1 is finished. I dug into my scrap bag for the constant dark which is black with magenta dots. As I did not have a piece big enough for Judy's required size I but the pieces into 2 1/2" squares and chain pieced them with the lights which were also cut into squares.

And I also finished Mystery Train #8. http://www.quiltingboard.com/blocks-...59478-155.html

Sorry can't be with you this weekend as I'm at Sherwood Forest Faire on weekends through the end of March.
Will provide y'all with some (dark) chocolate flavored honey sticks from Penny's Magic Garden. And yes they're healthy! And yummy too.
Penny's shop also has live herbs, herbal teas, bath salts and dream pillows as well as massage therapy, votive candles and an assortment of salves.
Hope the crazy weather doesn't keep all the patrons at home!
