Here they are so beautiful and finished
Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, wine in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming... Damn, What a ride!!

Sewing on
The first clue in the Orca Bay Mystery quilt came out the Friday before last and it was 224 hourglass units in 2.5 inches. That means cutting 4 x 224 triangles and sewing them together, oh my that is a lot of triangles. Well it wasn't so bad when I found out how to use the companion ruler and layer the fabric so it was easier to sew it afterwards. So all weekend and last week I sewed these little darlings and 2 Christmas stockings and 3 tea wallets. Yes I know I can't really just have one thing to sew at a time, can I.

That's so pretty ! Do you think they will finish that way ?
Congratulations on getting all those little blocks finished up. I love the way you have them arranges. Makes me want to design a quilt that looks like that.
WOO HOO! I live by that saying in your blog header, I just started the mystery finally last night, gotta a lot of sewing to catch up on, just wanted to stop by a few other blogs to see what everyone is up to as well. I can't only work on one project at a time either!
Love the way you have them organized, I kind of felt like i was going in circles while making them.
You're going to love clue #2 after these QSTs! They're fun, go fast and are adroable!
I love your blocks and the way that you've displayed them. Bonnie's mysteries are so much fun.
Very cute display!
