I love it! I followed Bonnie's OC a first but I'm too much of a sissy for all those HSTs , lol :o) Are you doing the Tobacco Road mystery? Amie

Congrats on being able to scratch one off your UFO list. What a pretty, bright quilt. Great job on it. Was this a kit?

Thanks everyone.

All the fabrics were pulled from my stash, except for the two borders. I had not planned on doing this mystery as I had way too much on my plate at the time and I didn't think I had enough fabric in my stash to make it work - silly me.

You can see some of the fabrics a little better in my Orange Crush folder: http://www.flickr.com/photos/knitnoid/s ... 357206281/

I ended up using only one yellow and one purple.

The HSTs actually were rather easy using the EZ Angle ruler. There are so many ways to make HSTs which method I use depends on what I'm making.

As for Bonnie's Old Tobacco Road, yes, I've started mine as a leader/ender project. I'm probably 3/4 of the way through sewing 2 patches and HSTs. When I finish, I'll start making 4-patches and pinwheels as my leader/ender project. My OTR is done in Purple, Green and Yellow.
