So many wonderful color ways. Suern3, love your coral/orange combination. Cheeshead and Petthefabric, also beautiful color combinations. Joe’s mom, I’m glad you are finding excitement in your fabric choices and making progress.
I did not participate this year because I have about 4 ufos that have been haunting me but I have enjoyed following the posts and comments on this year’s thread. Keep up the good work!

I'm not doing scrappy this year because I don't have enough stash left to do it. After 50 some years, believe it or not 
But I quit buying in 2001, and sold tons last year on ebay. Was a good move, I like having a fresh start, but I really do love scrappy quilts.
I read with interest on the FB page the pros and cons of printing out the clues.
These are my clues, I don't care for all the blah blah.
I do like this one enough that I may make it again in some form, in which case I'd probably copy and paste the pertinent information only.
People are still coming up short on the orange by a little, people that started after the correction.
editd to add: rats, tried to take the photo out because it has you know what, but apparently not possible. Don't look at you know what must not be mentioned.

Love your blocks with the black!

As I see it, I have one orange that shows up well, one that shows up poorly, and two that are in-between.
I have a good start on clue 6, so that shouldn't take forever. Kind of excited to see my blocks with the stash purples I hunted up.
