    Hi looking forward to the mystery?

    There was a mistake in cutting instructions for Week 3. Cutting instructions for contrast fabric said cut (4) 2-1/2" strips. Only 3 strips were required to make 52 rectangles. My fabric is 44" wide.

    I cannot get the instructions for week 3. I have watched the video. The link only goes to the video.

    I’m getting behind because I need eye surgery, so I’m cutting everything and sewing just enough to catch on. Watching the videos and saving them too. Love everyone’s color combos. Makes mine look very tame.

    Hi, I don't see the diagram on my week 3 download. Not sure if I did something wrong. Thank you so much for this fun mystery quilt. Julie

    Collen, did you say you were using your daisy fabric as fabric 1? I thought you were going to make it the background instead of the white to make the coral more prominent.

    I accidentally cut o e 6 “ co trust square in week two. Is there enough yardage figured in to cut another one or will it cause me to run short? I love these videos and the mystery challenge!
