Im guessing since Bonnie was shooting video on using the rulers today that tomorrows clue will not build on the 4-patches. Without seeing clue #2 yet, I'd suggest doing it (clue2) tomorrow when it posts and coming back to the 4-patches. I still have a few to assemble (I miscounted or the kids hid some) and am planning to use them as leaders/enders as I work the next clue. It will keep both moving forward.

Great idea NDQuilts. She mentioned in her blog today to stop if you were not done with the foursies and start the new clue. Then go back and pick up the foursies as you have time. Using them as leaders and enders for the next clue is very smart.

That is a great idea leaders and enders I have got them all cut but not all put together for the four patches. Looking forward to tomorrows clue.

Too fun!

I will also use oddball units as markers. So if I am doing a high volume of unit A, for every 20 A, I will insert a unit B. it speeds up the counting process. Count the unit B and multiply to get numer of A completed. When I press I cut out the unit B to make smaller kites of 20 A. And I will safety pin completed units together by 20. Anything to avoid counting higher than 100 more than necessary.

I safety pin my units in 20 also.
