I checked the blog and it said Block 6. I am a bit confused maybe because I haven't had my full cup of coffee yet. Does the mystery start with block 6 and work backwards ( Block 5 would be for October?). Or did I miss instructions for Blocks 1-5?
I would like to participate just don't know if I am too far behind. Thanks

i got all my HSTs paired, marked and sewn and cut today, but still have to trim all of them and assemble the block.

I didn't carefully read the directions and so I failed to use open seams on Block 6. My blocks didn't exactly finish at 12.5". Kinda wonky, but I am sure I can ease them in. I am not going to trim them until I know what we are going to do with them next.

Thank you. Btw, I just laid my four blocks out in that pattern. I don't know if that will be the final layout, but it looks neat.
Can't wait to see your fabric choices, Nanny. I hope you post the pics of your fabric from the estate sale.

I am half way done. Have two of the four "Block 6" done, and most of my other HST trimmed. Here is a progress photo to show the blocks. I did the 'add 1/4"' cutting method, so am having to trim everything down. The results seem pretty accurate, and my finished block is coming out at the 12 1/2" size, but boy is it MUCH more time consuming. Not sure I will do that again.
