    I think if we are making it w/ colors we love there won't be any problem like that. And if for some reason the way Bonnie puts it together doesn't appeal to us we can always play around w/ alternate placements or sashes or complimentary blocks or ......

    Jeanne, they look wonderful! (Post #1023.) I've got 18 sets done, but it seems as though the mountain is pretty high. Luckily, we aren't doing Christmas this week, due to our kids' work schedules, so I will be able to work all the way through to Saturday.

    I got started cutting my Clue 4 tonight. (Had to get the whole house cleaned and ready for Christmas houseguests first.) I got my 30 sets of reds cut. I had 27 different reds to cut from! I started on the black, but still have lots to cut, plus the 120 neutral trapezoids... Plenty more to cut before I can even begin sewing. I probably won't have time to do much more until after Christmas. Tomorrow is making cookies day.

    I've got all mine cut and waiting to start sewing. DH and I did all the family Christmas activities last weekend so the rest of the holiday season will be quiet for us - as far as visitors go. I've got lots of plans on what I want to get done between now and Jan 4th. Mostly getting about 40 sewing machines (including the long arm) moved out of the house! The building is not quite ready, but should be in a few more days.

    I'm hopeful I can get them all sewn up before the next clue is posted on Saturday. Glad to have an extra day to get this clue done.

    Another interesting guess on what we're doing with these pieces!

    I saw that layout on the link up but she didn't use the large neutral rectangles so I think that's not quite the right layout.

    I have also been dividing time this week between the tree, cookies and clue #4, so it's been slow going. Today I will begin sewing my first goose seam!

    what fun reds Angelina, well done, well done everyone, I have 3 sets left to get the wings on.

    don't despair of all the pieces, that is what makes Bonnie's mysteries a cut above...the finished quilt
    always makes people fall off their perch that we actually did it all

    I am in awe of you gals. Now the way I figure, you either do nothing else but sew, or you have magic fingers. Either way - hats off to you who are on track.

    A few days ago I found the grey-based green I was looking for as my constant. Now I can get started. Food will be crock-pot-based or REALLY simple for the next few days as I will be in the sewing room. There are a few things I want to finish before Allietare but I see little whacked-off geese in my near future.
