Good girl BCQLaur ... that's what helps keep the economy going....... and builds our stashes!! :)
I haven't got back to my BCS yet ... but soon!
Re the Clues ... each store started the Mystery on different dates, so that's why we're all at different stages.
I think my LQS got signed up and started earlier than most.

Of course, why not invite SatinMoon to join on here with us?
There's nothing "closed" about this at all!!

P.S. ... now that you've got this clue nabbed, how about some pictures? I'm totally intrigued with your fabric and how it's going to turn out!

I am going to wait until I get clue #4 then get it done because the ones satin moon posted are interesting.
Thanks for the encouragement

BCQLaur ... Can you give us a link to her blog, please? and thanks!

I've got too many stokes in the fire! Dear lord the work load I signed up for habit of mine, oh that's pretty I want to do it, right at the end of the month I've got to start another BOM club (Ginger Rose), I go to my Bernina Academy once a month and have lots of homework for that, since they think I've got lots of time to sew, lol too much time on here. I'm trying to catch up on the B9P and now I just started the Star of Bethlehem last night. Promised DH I wouldn't sign up for anymore classes (didn't tell him last night I signed up for the shop owner's Tote class in April)

QuiltE 02-07-2012 12:15 PM

Not to worry SheilaH ... you're already signed up for the April class! ... so you did tell your DH the truth! :)
Being that it's the LQS owner's class, does that mean that tote will be something bright and beautiful. This Spring/Summer when there's a good one day class (or two back to back days) ... let me know and I just might come and join you!

Pleeeeeeeeeeeease show us your B9P at whatever stage it's at?
That pattern keeps calling to me ... and I keep saying no no no ... no more new starts til I get some old ones finished up. Wonder how long I'll be successful?

Oh how impressed I was with your LQS!!!

Thanks! Looks like she's probably closer to me ... than you! :)
She's at the same stage as I am ... though I do have one more clue I haven't done yet!

She has finished the 4th clue it looks like. Have you?
I was intrigued by the five long strips. She has a tip about that.
I do not know if you are a long time quilter but I am sure you are more experienced then I.
Do you have any tips for those long strips or do you concur with hers?

Oh I guess I haven't done the 4th yet ... I haven't done any joining of the long strips. I saw the QSTs and knew I had done those.

Yes, her suggestion to sew from opposite ends is a good one. If you sew all from the same end, the strip set can tend get a curl in it. So if you go opposite ways at it, then it will help to keep them all nice and straight!
