Allietare marches on. I've hit the halfway point with Clue 2:
That's ten sets out of the 20 that I need. Eighty units is small potatoes compared to the 296 HSTs from Clue 1, though.
And I hit 200 of those HSTs today, so only 96 to go!
I dither on whether I'm committed to making the whole quilt, or if I'll take the easy way out and just shoot for a half-size Allietare. (And you all know how I love a good dither, so there's probably no resolving this one any time soon.)
As busy as I am at the moment, and considering how many projects I've already got underway, my compromise is to finish each clue at least to the halfway point. That way, if I have to set the whole project aside at the time of the reveal, at least most of the heavy lifting will be done and I can finish at my leisure when things calm down around here. Well, if things calm down around here. If I don't start eleventy more quilts and other assorted projects before the end of next year.
Or between now and the start of Bonnie Hunter's next mystery quilt...

Halfway sounds (and looks) good!
Nice to see more on your mystery quilt, fun to watch the progress!
Looking interesting - like the fabrics. Have you made many of her Mystery Quilts in the past?
Don't exert yourself Gayle. Quilting is a fun hobby remember? You are doing great progress and it looks pretty already. Enjoy! ;^)
There is nothing wrong with starting eleventy more quilts.......it's that eleventy twelfth one that causes the problems. :) Love you red fabrics! So much fun!!
Sounds like a plan--you will at least do a half size, and have the choice to do the larger. Here's to dithering and other dilemmas like eleven projects!
