    Hi Billie I have hand written the instructions and then drawn what I think blocks are. Wasn't sure about a in block 1 until I saw yours thank you. I make it that the 2 block 1 go in the centre with all the block 2 around.
    Not done. Borders yet must keep reading

    Same here! Keep going - it will probably end up being one of your favorites!

    Great colors! I agree the second block looks really busy but maybe when they are all put together it will work.

    I'm looking forward to seeing your other blocks. I have to admit that although I have done a few mystery quilts in various quilting magazines, but I cheat (?), and wait until I get all parts of the mystery blocks before I start. It's always challenging to pick fabric without knowing how the blocks will look.

    Congratulations to all who are doing this mystery. Giving up control to someone else and blindly trusting their judgement is so very hard. You are stretching your boundaries - who knows where that might go? It's fun for us to follow your process; thank you for sharing it with us. Joyce in DE
