Today is planned as a "me" day after yesterday's painting fiasco. I started by finishing up Clue #3 of Frost 25, a QOV mystery venturing away from reds, whites, and blues. All corners double-sewn, trimmed and pressed.
Clue #4 HSTs were pieced, and the center strips were strip-pieced. Then came time to piece the final block. Despite DOUBLE-CHECKING.....I STILL ended up piecing the block incorrectly! After chain-piecing and pressing the top/center rows together, I checked the pattern (pictured). My thought....."aw poop!" BUT, rather than ripping out the 12 blocks, I just left 'em, shrugged and told myself this will be a REAL mystery now!!!So, off to print the final clue (#5). **crossing fingers**
CHICK UPDATE: We are up to eleven chicks ;0)
Ok... I'm getting way to interested in this. Where is the mystery posted?
ReplyDeleteGlad I'm not the only one that does things like that. Waiting in great anticipation of what your mystery will look like
ReplyDeleteIt is looking good and I am so jealous that you are sewing and I am at work now! LOL, just found out I will teach a college class again in the Fall...but means I have lots of stuff to do before Aug! I just want to sew!
ReplyDeleteHow exciting! Your own mysterious version of the mystery is evolving!
