    Thanks for sharing, Teen. If I ever get out that way, I'll have to make it a stop on my trip!

    On the year we did Ringo Lake I happily went along making all the clues. On the final clue/reveal I finished up the clues....loved the quilt, walked across the room to the working wall and started playing. This is what the mystery was
    https://quiltville.com/shop.html#!/O...egory=13038426

    This is what I came up with. Had to make a few more 9 patches, and had flying geese left over. I call it Not Ringo Lake
    I share this because we can make anything with our blocks, even if we quit mid-mystery.

    The reverse side is made up of recycled men's shirts, most blocks that began as a plan and fell by the wayside. (all my quilts are double-sided, saves storage space, saves on batting, saves on quilting)

    I'm working on BitCoin between clues, more scraps used up, morphing into things of beauty.

    mine is blues/yellows, and light neutrals.

    KalamaQuilts: Your Not Ringo Lake is gorgeous. Thanks for sharing the alternative paths that are available.

    I remember your beautiful quilt, Kalama! Especially the amazing back made out of pieced men's shirt plaids. What a beauty it is! I made major changes to mine too, so it's also a Not Ringo. I used orange and royal blue (don't knock it til you try it!), set it straight rather than on point, and put my own choice of a twisty border around it. I love it!

    I tackled On Ringo Lake this year but honestly, I got so frustrated that I ended up doing it differently. But I love the results.
    That's a beautiful pattern but for some reason it drove me nuts!

    SusieQOH, I remember that one as a challenge to put together.

    No work done for the last couple of days, but not worried about it.

    Yeah, it was a bear!
    I haven't started this one yet because I have too much going on but after Christmas I'll get going.
