I’m still sewing away on my Orca Bay mystery quilt. I’m about to finish up the Ohio Stars. One thing I changed from the original directions was to make the black blocks with blue centers instead of red centers. Since the finished quilt has been revealed I thought maybe a blue center would help bring out a diagonal look a little more.
My sister Polly & I talked about swaping the dark Ohio Stars with the light Ohio Stars in the final layout. Can you see the difference it makes?
We had a lot of activity at our house over the holidays. The young people had fun singing around the piano & guitar.

Laura came to teach kindergarten for our church school. She is boarding with us and graces us with lovely music often.

I have thoroughly enjoyed watching these two friends develop a close relationship.

I see we had the same thought about changing the pattern around. It looks good!
Looks like a good time was had by all. I see the difference and I think they both look great. Did you have a hard time making a decision. I referred Amy from Amy's passions to your example as she was one of the ones (like myself) who got mixed up a bit on the instructions. I think your pictures could help her.

She may still need to do some ripping, but maybe not as much as she feared. Thank you for showing that.
Oh, I really like your variation in the setting of Orca Bay. I'm still working on the later clues so could easily change mine. Thanks for sharing your ideas :)
