I printed off the paper piecing templates for clue 2 (triangle blocks) They printed out 1/8 smaller. I went to chrome and printed it again and they were perfect. I think a lot of people are having trouble because of the pattern not being right. I can only use 4 of the 6 patterns on each page as we need to make the blocks 1/4 inch bigger than the pattern edge and the patterns are to close for that. I hope this makes sense and helps someone from making a mistake or having frustrated times. Sheep farmer sounds like your about to catch up.

My clue 3 strips are patiently awaiting my attention. But a nasty case of food poisoning has me sidelined since Saturday.
Worse of all, I was at my DDILs getting ready to help her paint the babys room when it hit me.
She ended up having to do it by herself...

It's finally Monday and I will get to start on Clue #3. Working weekends really interferes with my sewing time.
Love everyone's purple 4 patches so far, especially the alternate color ways. The block design guesses are very interesting. I'm seeing several on the Facebook group as well. It seems that the next clue we will start using the specialty rulers again. Looking forward to making some HST's, flying geese and/or hourglass units with the colors we haven't used yet.

I remember reading something about chrome being the right size on her site. I didn't think to post that till today. I think for me the paper piecing is the best way for accuracy on those types of blocks. Like clue 2.
