Grand Illusion, Week Four

Another Friday has come and gone.  Along with it came Clue 4 in the Grand Illusion Mystery Quilt.

Britt remembered to check for new clues early this in the AM this time around.  But with last minute quilting on another project, there was not really much time for the mystery. Just time to ponder the new clue and wonder how it will all end up!

Joy was so busy with Holiday shopping and various errands that she didn't manage to take a look at Bonnie's latest set of instructions until just before dinner time.

THIS WEEK'S CLUE...

Here are the components for Joy's quilt from this week's clue:



Joy kept insisting on putting together "pink"/neutral HST units during our Saturday sewing session:


Britt's cutting machine makes cutting triangles a breeze - which is not exactly a bonus when you are cutting the wrong fabrics! oops!:

At least, the neutral triangles were meant for Clue 4!!
Britt got cutting done for her triangles and her black squares. The yellow fabrics were not at hand so still have to yet to be cut.



Here Joy is back on the right track:

Those triangles ARE neutrals - not yellows!
You'll NEVER believe it!!!

Joy finished this clue (for a half sized quilt) in ONE afternoon and evening!!!  ALL of the cutting and ALL of the sewing has been completed.  Not just portions of the clue, mind you.  She finished the ENTIRE clue!  Now she can concentrate on finishing the balance to clue 2 and 3 (since she didn't do any leaders or enders today.)

Until Monday...
Happy Quilting!!!
