    In the past I pinned my quilts to the drapes for pictures. We got new windows with built in blinds and now I have no drapes in the house.

    No, you didn't miss it.......I still haven't taken the photo. Thanks for the reminder to do this. I've been so preoccupied with other things lately that I totally forgot to do it.

    Joe's MOM: I'm just now starting this. I have some of clue # 1 done, but I love that little border. Very creative.

    Thank you, Battle Axe! We can work on the quilt together, as I'm doing a second version. I'm working on clue 2 today.

    Do you know if the instructions are still available? I just quilted Allietare on a longarm yesterday and thought to myself, why didn't I print the clues to En Provence to have later down the road....

    The instructions are no longer available on the blog, but I believe the pattern is available for purchase as a download from the Quiltville store. I have never bought one of the download patterns, so I don't know how the instructions that come with the pattern will compare to the instructions we received during the mystery.

    I completed enough units to get a block up on the wall, of my second colorway, and I'm not that crazy about it. Not sure if I should keep going or just put it aside at this point.

    When you say the points are too big, do you mean the red side pieces from the tri-recs unit? Or do you mean the finished unit is coming out too big? My tri-recs units tended to be too narrow.

    Is there a chance you sewed the red triangles on upside down? The little point on the red triangle needs to sewn onto the base of the neutral triangle. If you can post a picture it would help us diagnose the problem.
