Ready for Clue # 6. The only color we have not used is the red-orange. And so far no flying geese. What say you all?

Macybaby, stay inside, be safe.

I am getting caught up this week. I just have to finish pulling the paper off of my first clue 4s, and finish sewing my second clue 4s. I think I should be able to finish that today, if I don't fritter the day away.

Here are my second clue 5s; for my second quilt I used blue, green and neutral yardage. It's my first time using tonal neutrals in a Bonnie quilt.

BattleAxe, do you have a separate red-orange group of fabrics? Bonnie just had the one orange group.

Edit to add, I don't know what to expect for tomorrow!

We are in the middle of a really bad winter storm - so bad they closed the office for today and tomorrow so I've got a lot more sewing time than I expected to have!

I'll be sewing right along with you. On the Gulf Coast, there is no winter, but we are expecting rain for the next few days. I'm hoping for an orange/red combo. Keeping my fingers crossed.

Good Morning All, I am making the half size and have made a few extra for each clue. All clues are done and waiting for tomorrow's clue.

I am typing this on the back screened in porch but .a quilt across my legs. Being from Minnesota and Colorado, I just love living in the Austin, Texas area--apologize for sounding braggy but just so happy. Have a great day quilting.

Uh Oh, I have used the red orange already in some of the clues. Lol, oh well, should be interesting

About the red orange.....I remember her saying something in maybe a blog about the red orange. In the back of my head it was a separate category. But my neighbor who was just here says I make these things up, and assume too much. So I guess we can hold our breath and see tomorrow morning. I have saved some of the lighter red oranges. If not a new color, then we are going to have to start putting things together ??????? or make the other direction of those dreaded chevrons.

I think the 2 color chips for the orange were meant to represent a *range* of orange to make the strings more interesting. I'm sure if you used more of the light for some clues and dark for others it will be fine though.

Sync - Love your colors!

Oh, and I also think there will be one more Clue where we make a unit, then I think she will spread out the block assembly into several Clues.

"Tomorrow, tomorrow, we will start the day tomorrow with a brand new clue."

If you grew up on Mr Rogers you can sing along with me.
