    She did a mystery a few years ago called Roll Roll Cotton Boll (featured in her String Fling book) and it had matching sets that turned out to be all in the same block and the blocks were then set off with string blocks of neutrals. I'm excited about seeing this clue. I loved that prior quilt and hope she's doing something similar with this new mystery. Time will tell.

    Yes, I thought Roll Roll Cotton Boll was a very pretty quilt when I saw it recently in one of Bonnie's pictures, believe it was in the Show and Tell of one of her classes. I am fairly new to Bonnie's blog, have been following her for maybe 5 months or so. Just looked at the quilt pattern in her Spring Fling book, it's on my to-do list one of these years, let's see if I make it through this, my first mystery quilt, ha!

    I think Roll Roll Cotton Boll is my favorite of all her Mystery Quilts I have done. It is on my bed right now!!!

    JeanieG, can you post a pic of your Roll Roll Cotton Boll? I'm not familiar with that pattern and I would love to see it, and I'm sure everyone else would enjoy looking at it. Joe'smom,I was thinking the same thing about the tile floor in Bonnies' picture and have been looking at it for clues.....

    Siodach, your pieces look great! And I really like your different color selections. I hope to get mine done today too.

    I am going on a photography trip to Edinburgh in late May, 2016, can't wait to return to your lovely country!!
