I've got a ?? I'm making a queen size, made 96 4 patch blocks. In this clue, it looks like we will come out with 1/2 the # of blocks we did in clue #1. This will give me 48 new blocks, correct? Clue #1 = 24 blocks or 96 for bigger quilt. Clue #2 makes 12 blocks, 48 for bigger?
Then when you sew the 96 of each into groups of 4 like Judy's pic shows of clue 2, you will end up with 48 8.5" blocks.

Cindy, clue one had (24) 4 patch blocks and clue 2 makes (24) half square triangles as written. So, if you made (96) 4 patch blocks, you will need 96 half square triangle blocks. You will need 48 light and 48 medium/bright squares to make 96 half square triangles, if I am not mistaken.
Then when you sew the 96 of each into groups of 4 like Judy's pic shows of clue 2, you will end up with 48 8.5" blocks.

I missed the train. Found the thread when the first clue was posted but then got the creeping crud. A solid week of awfulness, the good news is I lost nine pounds in six days. Well come to think of it, that wasn't the good news, I think that was the bad news. Anyway, when I got back, thought it was really strange that I had nothing in my inbox from this thread, given the people who participate, I knew it couldn't be right. Well somehow I didn't subscribe. So I will be catching up in a lot of ways. Fantastic blocks already posted. Love the fabric choices.
