Clue 3 of the Mystery quilt

I was going to start out by saying I was sorry to you all for neglecting my blog.  But I decided against it.  I guess when I started this blog it was going to be something fun and a way of sharing what I am sewing on.  I have done that.  I have not been great about sharing everything, but what the hey!!

So Happy New Year!!!  2 months ago we gave the guild clue 3 of the mystery.  We gave them 2 months to do that clue.  2 months ago.  So clue 4 comes out to the guild next week.  So I had better get clue 3 out to you all.  It is an easy one and unless you are doing 3 i should not take long to get it done.
