RRCB Step #2

I finished step 2, and from the last page of instructions, I think that step 3 is probably not going to be an easy one like 1 and 2 have been.   Oh well, you know when you do a Bonnie Hunter mystery that it will be challenging but worth it.   Because I am aware of this, I hope to finish some other things this week, or at least make a large dent.   JoAnn's had a sale on their 9.99 fleece for only 2.99, so I got enough to make my grandson a fleece blanket and called my brother to see if he wanted fleece blankets for his step-grandchildren.  He did, so I got enough for 2 for them and flannel for a pillow for each of them.   Then I realized that I don't have anything for the 2 babies in the family, my great-granddaughter and my grandson's girlfriends little boy.   We went back to JoAnn's today and didn't get as good of a deal, but did get 50% off and enough fleece for 2 smaller fleece blankets and 2 more flannel pillowcases.   I also have another thank you quilt to do, and so got some fabric to do it.   I was hoping to finish my Iowa (Carolina) Christmas in time to have it on my bed for the holidays, but it's not looking good, lol.   If I can get myself going, maybe....

Hi Candace,
You quilt sounds fun. I was at Jo-Ann's in Minot on Friday and I believe I was the only one not buying fleece! I did get the fabric for my little companion's dress half off though so it was worth the long line. I have preshrunk the material and will be working on that this week. Have a good week!

Congratulations on getting step 2 done. Like you, I am wondering when the harder parts are going to pop up. It's always worth it in the end though.

Your step 2 looks good. I need to get busy or I will fall hopelessly behind. I've never done a Bonnie Hunter mystery before, but the finished quilts I've seen from other mysteries are beautiful.
