For this clue, we made 168 4-patches. I found the Bloc-Loc Strip Set Ruler very helpful for this clue.
Here's a photo of the whole ruler. It can be used turned either way, depending on the width of your strip sets.
Part of the assembly line:
Chain piecing at my sewing machine:

I did the same thing moved all of my pieces to one box.... guess it's on to the yellow and green next.
ReplyDeleteYes, I'm looking forward to doing some new colors!
DeleteThat is such a cool ruler! Your four-patches look awesome.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Alison! I'd seen that ruler at the quilt shop I work at, but didn't know how to use it. Then I saw someone's BH blog link up and how they had used it and it clicked for me. Now I'm loving it!
DeleteLove your purple project box. Very appropriate for those lovely purple mystery units.
ReplyDeleteThat must be why I choose that purple project box over the others!
DeleteBeautiful purples in your 4 patches! You've done so well at keeping up. You've finished some gorgeous quilts this year.
ReplyDeleteThanks!!! You're using some pretty unusual fabrics in your BH mystery!
DeleteI love your container as well as your blocks. I need something better than a shoe box! LOL
ReplyDeleteI have one word for you: Costco!
DeleteThat's a beautiful collection of quilts - you've been busy!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Marie! Love being busy making quilts!
DeleteYour mystery quilt is coming along well, I have everything cut but a lot left to sew. Have a great Christmas!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Lisa! As BH says, the sewing is the calming part--one piece after another. That's something to look forward to!
DeleteYour blocks look wonderful! Beautiful purples! You've made some beautiful quilts also.
ReplyDeleteThanks!!! Are you doing En Provence?
DeleteYes, I am. But I changed the green to teal and the yellow to lime. It is my second time doing Bonnie Hunter's MQ.
DeleteYou are a brave quilter!!!! Changing colors and all!
