Our 7th Mystery Quilt Train Ride -- Whoo Hoo
#1591
Ripped and Angelia -- love your squares!
This clue is also taking me longer than any of the others, so I'm glad this is all we have to do this week. I think it's having to stop and press and trim the inner square that is adding time. But it is an easy step and I like the fact there's no way to do it backwards. Been there, done that, too many times .)
Angelia, after seeing yours with E made up scrappy, I'm following suit. I realized that with D being scrappy, it made no sense to go with E as a constant. I didn't see Judy's comment before I'd already cut out D, otherwise I might have done the larger square in half for both D & E.
Now, I have to stop playing with fabric and finish my sermon for tomorrow which is only half-done, thanks to Judy and her temptations!

All the blocks look beautiful! I was glad we used big pieces of E, so the print would show. I stuck with my original choice for the Red/Black version, but changed from pink to green on the scrappy one.

yes! I can order 1/2 yard will "do it" with some left over..... My "rub" is the shipping..(and my stupidity to chose a stash fabric that didn't "measure up" to what Judy wanted. grrrrr it is the ONLY place I have been able to find that fabric soooo guess I'll have to bite the bullet..... was just hoping somebody loved this fabric too and had a bit left over!! lol ! and THANKS! I think it is gonna be stunning...... wasn't sure a few days ago...... I am still on week 3.... Hoping to catch up this week.... *sigh*

So now you all see why I was pushing for changes to E in some cases. I think everyone thought E was going to be the focus fabric, but I think there are 2 focus in this one - D and E.
But everyone's blocks are so beautiful, the finished quilts are going to really be eye catching.

I am reading the directions three times and waiting till tomarrow to read them again....do not want to miss another mirror image step. Actually I think I will wait till I can print the directions out....easier to read from paper than the 'puter screen.
Everyones blocks sure are pretty ! Another winner, Judy !
