you are fast Lisa, what colors did you use? maybe you already showed us on an earlier post?

everybody's looks good, it should be fun.

I spent some time today pulling tiny scraps, but have not even started cutting yet.

Oh I love your fabrics. This makes choosing look so much easier. I am trying to stick to my stash but I don not have enough neutrals.

The first post has the link for instructions. http://quiltville.blogspot.com/2013/...ng-celtic.html. Then click on "Celtic Solstice" in the top banner to get step one, which is where we are now.

I pulled my colors yesterday. Why oh why does that take so long??? I am changing to color choices a LOT. Will take pictures when daylight permits. I also decided to make a small size and then add borders if I want to make it a bit bigger. Don't need a king size.

Yep. Everything is copacetic here too. Some of my quilt buddies are also doing BH's mystery and we're swapping some neutrals amongst us. Great way to add to the mix!

Glad to see there is a thread for the mystery...
I am using Inklingo on mine and have about 30 more units to do and clue one will be finished.
Hopefully later today I will do them on my treadle because the sewing room is kind of dark once the sun sets.
Finally watched Bonnie's how to sew the units video and realized I needed to trim all those dog ears! Well something to do while I watch TV or a movie this week LOL

How does the Inklingo work on dark fabric? Can you see the lines OK?

I'm making the king size, I didn't get to work on it until late yesterday afternoon I finished the cutting around 7:00 tonight. Won't get a chance to sew on it until Wednesday (school Christmas programs Monday and Tuesday, didn't we just do Thanksgiving?) I'm hoping the sewing will go smoothly and I can get step 1 finished by Saturday morning.
