    It's ok, we'll start after Christmas.. LOL Got too much to do! Heehe Directions etc.. :) OH! BTW!! http://mysimystery.wordpress.com/201.../we-are-alive/ I will post all my clues here.. so that they will be on one page.. YOU WILL HAVE TO DOWNLOAD OPEN OFFICE I put a link there at the bottom of the blog. This way you all can see the slideshow! :) I did it that way so I could put BIG pictures up so everyone can see what's going on. If I did it the other way, with so many newer quilters they would be confused! Thanks! :)

    for some unknown reason "open office" isnt down loading onto my computer correctly. tried trouble shooting but cant find a reason.

    I don't care the direction of the stripes, and I haven't decided which position they will be in
    There is so much info and questions regarding the Mystery quilt that it's so overwhelming and hard to seperate the material required, the cutting directions and I believe there were "3" instructions from you and I can't find the third ;-) I believe this post is up to 22 or 23 pages.
    Maybe instructions and general chit chat should be in seperate posts. Sorry I love reading what everyone has to say, but it's to "Busy" for my brain to seperate from the task. Hope that makes sense. I'm not trying to "Offend" anyone but need clarity. Thanks

    I know. Missy tried to post needed info on another place on the board and people started putting ?s and everything there too. I think with her doing the blog thing, that we can post our comments, ?s, and pics here and for everyone the instructions on the blog will make it easy to access.

    It has taken me a couple of days to figure out which fabrics to go with my focal fabric (that was the easiest to pick my favorite of all time)and now have it narrowed down. I have not done any order so would greatly appreciate help with that. At this point I believe I will start..with the wall hanging.Thanks in advance for "all you hard work" in putting this together and helping pick choices. I actually have posted 12 so need to take out some and if needed can swith with different so would love your opinion.

    Judy G, normally I am not a brown type person. However, I really really love your choices.

    a focus fabric. Just my opinion.
