How did you figure all that out? This what really frustrates me when I want to do a mystery quilt. I always worry about having a really dumb fabric in the most obvious place. How do you figure what to put where?[/quote]
That was my concern so I asked for help. I can't wait to see these together.

Going to be so exciting to see each week what our squares are going to look like when we get to share them. Thank goodness for digital technology :thumbup: and very caring and sharing quilters out there giving up there time and experience for others.

Usually I look at the picks that the hostess makes. Then I find something that I like and 'emulate' if you will what she has..Then I'll ask her what she thinks.. and go from there. Mysteries are a leap of faith, loss of 'control' per se.. even a get outside your comfort zone kind of learning process. Most times they turn out great.. others.. just ok. But w/ the choices everyone has made I think these will be of the 'great' category!

I hope that I can get the block done the day you post, I am also trying to do the BOM on the 1st and the 15th.
How long did you say this mystery will last?
I washed my fabric today and decided to try a color catcher I just baught. I put all the colors in together and the white fabric came out white! I am going to try to get to the cutting tomorrow.
