    I'm still struggling to quit it, or just store it on a shelf as a terrible project. The colors just are not great in mine.

    I have my quilt top finished just need to quilt it now. I didn't put the outside border on mine, but had all the pieced done so I decided to make another little quilt with them. I don't have a picture of my actual quilt as I am not at home this month, but do have one of the extra. Hope you guys like it.

    just took a look at your top, and i have to say, i really like it! the extra border you've added, really pulls out the greens as you said...
    please don't give up hope on it, i think it will grow on you given the chance...
    good job though!!!

    Are you looking for Orca Bay clues? I don't think they're available. But here is the link to clue 3 for Bonnie's Easy Street mystery. http://quiltville.blogspot.com/

    The pattern was available by link for only a limited time because it was included in Bonnie Hunter's book that came out in 2012. So, if you want to make the quilt you can buy the book. Or, you can look at her website, www.quiltville.com, for many other scrappy patterns that are free.

    I think it may be about time for her next annual quilt-along. You might want to do the next one instead.

    Yes, she has retired the Orca Bay Pattern. She took it off her web site last July. It is in her latest book. We are in the third week of this years Mystery. Check out the link to Easy Street.

    Can you believe that I picked out each and every of the hundreds of blocks. I just couldn't deal with the finished project. It took me all the way to PHoneix and back. Now I'm pressing the individual blocks again, and will lay them all out into TWO seperate quilts, hopefully not quite so busy and overwhelming!
