    Kassaundra love the change it color and really shows up the beautiful teal fabric.
    I also use a mechanical pencil for marking, makes a nice clean line.
    AngeliaNR your "santa hats" are so cute. I am amazed at how fast you got Clue 2 done.
    I love being a part of this forum. Always learn something new.

    Congrats AngeliaNR! They look great.

    To mark my cutting lines I use either a regular pencil or a ballpoint pen. I sew 1/4" from that and then cut it. I would like to try the creases but I'm afraid they'll be too hard for me to see.

    I've got mine all cut too - then went to dinner with DH and then to Menards to pick up supplies for the electrical in my building. I'm looking forward to getting up in the morning and sewing!

    I've got 2 sets each of reds (so 10 different reds) and 20 different sets of neutrals.

    Thank you, everyone, for all your suggestions on marking lines on triangles. This will give me some methods to try and see which works best for me! You guys are the best!!

    Oh, and I forgot to say thanks for the ideas for not making lines. I'll try those too!

Have to finish some longarm projects first, before I can jump in on this clue, however.
    This was my reaction, too, that it was unusual for Bonnie to call for matching sets. It stands to reason that all four of a set will be used together in a block, wouldn't you say? I'm thinking of that elaborate floor tile in the intro to Part 2, that Bonnie said was the starting point for her selecting this color palette.

    Well, I got most everything cut today. I found the Companion Angle ruler much much easier to work with than the Easy Angle ruler for some reason. Finished a quilt for Ro's homeless Vet charity too and I am pooped, calling it a night. Hope to get the headless geese sewn tomorrow!!
