SPOILER ALERT -
BOB THINKS SHE HAS THE SOLUTION TO THE "EASY STREET" MYSTERY -
IF YOU DON'T WANT TO KNOW -
STOP READING NOW!!!
===================
By jove - I think I’ve got it!!
Just like last year - HERE -
BOB was having trouble getting to sleep the other night -
Waiting for Santa ;))
So she got to thinking about Bonnie Hunter’s Easy Street Mystery Quilt - HERE -
And just might have a solution to the mystery - ;))
BOB loves mysteries -
And has never been able to read one -
Without trying to figure out “whodunit” -
But if you are one of those who thinks that a mystery -
Should REMAIN a mystery -
Until you read the VERY last page -
And if you would rather not know -
And would rather be surprised -
I respect that -
Just don’t read Quilter BOB today -
STOP READING NOW!!!
===================
SO -
This is what BOB thinks -
And we all know BOB could be WRONG!!
BOB originally thought that with a quilt 84 x 84 -
And 3" "units" -
That the grid would be 28 x 28 = 784 units
And that 12" blocks set 7 x 7 would finish at 84 x 84 -
BUT -
WHAT IF YOU "REVERSE" IT - ;))
The blocks are 7" and set 12 x 12 -
No - 7" blocks won't work with 3" units -
And - the units are being made in multiples of 8 not 12 -
BUT -
WHAT IF -
The blocks are 21" and set 4 x 4 -
THAT would work with 3" units -
AND with 16 blocks -
THAT would work with units made in multiples of 8 -
SO -
WHAT IF -
ONE of these is our basic block -
#1 -
#2 -
#3 -
#4 -
#5 -
===
My favorite is #5 -
So let’s use that one -
And make 16 of them -
And then set them 4 across and 4 down -
And it looks like this??
A - in Bonnie’s colors -
B - in my colors -
BOB has NO IDEA if this is even close -
Or what Bonnie has planned for the last steps -
But -
This would be a really cool layout - don’t ya think?
Yeah - BOB thought so - ;))
But then again - it’s probably just me.
