When I saw the Squared Away Sampler project for RSC18 at So Scrappy, I knew that I wanted to participate.
The rainbow scrap color for January is light to medium blue. I am using my 1-1/2″ fabric strips to create my sampler block. I am making three 5″ blocks.
Here they are, laid out and ready to sew:
What’s that under the sampler blocks?
Oh yeah…it is Bonnie Hunter’s ORL (On Ringo Lake) mystery. I have been working on it slow and steady.
Clues 1 to 6 are finished. I am loving this project!

I let myself get distracted by Bonnie Hunter’s On Ringo Lake mystery. It is a good distraction!
Bonnie helps me to overcome my fondness to pet my fabric and actually use it!
She also helps me to look at color/value in new ways!
And I learn new-to-me methods for rotary cutting.
I enjoy the social media fellowship of many, many other quilters working Bonnie’s mystery, too!
Win-win!
I am also happy that Patty, at Elm Street Quilts, is continuing OMG (One Monthly Goal) in 2018.
OMG provides me with accountability and motivation to make progress on projects, and sometimes I even have a finish!
My work hours should be less in January, so my goal is to turn On Ringo Lake into a flimsy.
I have clues 1 & 2 done, as well as 3 & 4.
Clue 5 is in progress.

My OMG/UFO goal for December was the number 10 (drawn by Patchwork Times).
I wanted to get the borders sewn on The Case of the Secret Garden. I would have liked to have gotten this flimsy basted, too, but the day job was very busy.
And I was distracted by holiday fun.
I was also distracted by Bonnie Hunter’s On Ringo Lake mystery.
Clues 3 & 4 in progress:
Clues 1 & 2 are here.
