Helen: So pretty, I went with Bonnie's colors too but the thing about scrappy is even the same colors look so different. I am going to succumb to temptation and make at least two. No one will ever know the housework has been put off for another day. You know what they say, you will end the year as you start it. Sounds like a good deal to me.

Default Just had to put together each block!

Still working on clue #5 but I had to put together one of each block. They are not perfect but I am thrilled with them! I don't believe the quilt police are working today since it's a holiday! Happy New Year to all! Hugs! Debbie

OoooOOOOooo our pretty preciousses...

I've always wanted to make one of these quilts, now I will have. And will definitely use the trex rulers again
Absolutely lovely.
Sheri, it's your quilt, do whatever you want to do!
I am making the small one 75X75 but that isn't a size I'd use so my plan was to take a side and put it on the bottom.
I'll have to play with some blocks to see if that would work with this quilt.

And how fun is it to already have our border units finished

Ohhhh, great job everyone! I have not finished Step 5 yet, about half done! Don't know if I will get started on putting it together today or not. Gotta get the Christmas Decorations put away first! UGH.

Looking good, everyone! I'm so happy that I can use my "mistake" tri-recs for the border. I'll alternate a yellow and a red. YAY!.

I've also wanted to make this quilt and am excited to see it coming together. Everyone's blocks are wonderful! I have a question about pressing. I know when sewing the units together for the 54/40 or fight blocks Bonnie said to press toward the orange four patches and away from the star points, but how are you pressing when sewing your rows together to form the block? Open, or to one side or can they be spun like the four patches? I've only made one block so far. Thanks!

Whoo-hoo...just found that the reveal came unexpectedly at midnight while I slept LOL

I am going to fiddle around with it a bit but I have another NY Day project to finish LOL I am loving that some of you have shared at least one block of each. Linda Franz at Inklingo has prepared alternate layouts in case someone wanted to do something different

As for me I have a small pieced quilt top that I am going to try and incorporate into my quilt to make it fit my bed and I really love the small quilt but don't have anyplace to display it.
