    Your eh .... friend has no problem. It’s being prepared. That’s like asking if you have a problem cuz’ you can cook dinner or bake cookies without having to first run to the store.

    Those colors look great!

    It was time to decide on neutrals, as it has become obvious that I can't keep up doing both light and dark. Here's a photo of some identical units, plus my darkest and two lightest grays. I'll continue with the light neutrals, as they make me happy, and I think my colors aren't strong enough to stand up to the blacks.

    Going to sew up clue 3 now..I baked all day today and made 5 different cookie recipes and two candy recipes... however, this one was the most challenging. I have never made gingerbread from scratch and have never made my own cream frosting ....this ginger filling is fabulous! Treat trays made up and delivered to the neighbors....my season is done! Now, just sew!! Woohoo!

    PinkFlowers. I am just pasting the reply I gave earlier: "...if you have printed out the Clue 3 PDF she provided....if you look at the bottom of page two where it continues on the top of page three...there is a big hint....as to the size of an hourglass unit these triangles would make...although she does remind us...that we are not making hourglass units.

    looks great with either colorway but I like the light the best... you are on your way!

    Teen, My guess is that we all would like to be your neighbors. Those cookies look yummy.

    I also like the light neutrals. Your blocks are looking good.

    Finished up Clue 2 today. Tomorrow will start on 3. Sounds like for me I'm done with the lt. blue (Bonnie's gold).
