Squares, Squares, Squares

Double Four Patches to be exact!  



Yes, I am excited.  This is for Clue# 3 of Bonnie Hunter's Grand Illusion.  I get to pull out the Kiwi Green batik and see how it plays with the black & the cream when it’s cut into small squares.  I auditioned a ton of greens – you’d be surprised at how many nuances of bright, lime-ish green I found at Lolly’s before deciding that this one would be best.  

We had a lot planned for this weekend (more on those activities in another post), so I wasn't sure how far I would get by link up time.  I wold have gotten farther if I hadn't sewn these wrong!  Fortunately I caught the mistake after only one set and did some un-sewing and then some re-sewing.

Not a huge pile yet but it's a start!

Click for the Grand Illusion mystery link up party for Dec 15th and see quilter’s progress and excitement as we work on the Clue # 3.
