Here we are -- Clue 1!

I received a private email from someone who was concerned about the PDF links. Bonnie says
"Please help me continue to design and show your support by sending your friends to my blog to print their own copy."
I try to take my role as host very seriously. The PDF links are direct to Bonnie's site and are provided here as a convenience and for us to have a way to discuss directions or pictures. The internet is not free and our internet providers are rewarded for site visitors, it is important to at least support them by going to their sites. And, I really really recommend actual print copies as well as downloads. (I just print copies, I don't keep them digitally) If you prefer to do a few more clicks to give more activity to Bonnie's site, here again is the start of the mystery (warning you can spend days on the site):

Many of us also get Bonnie's emails. I did not the first year I did the mystery. I have been very pleased that I was not inundated by spam once I signed up. A reasonable amount of contact from her through the year which I enjoy, and the store she links as well (I ordered a neutral pack for Indigo Way). Unlike a recent guild seminar I went to where apparently they gave her our email and I got about 60 in 2 weeks before I opted out.
And a brief reminder of No Spoilers and a general Play Nice Policy (not that we need one). Different people do this mystery for different reasons, just as the quilts come out differently. We want everyone to have a good time. It's a wonderful marvelous thing that we can all do this together while hundreds and thousands of miles and different times apart. We have different beliefs and families as well as fabrics. Let's be respectful and let's enjoy our time and Bonnie's gift to us together!
I did repeat the quilt dimensions earlier because that is given to us directly (like the name of the project), just was a bit hard to find. But let's all try not to use numbers for counts or block sizes. If there is a problem, either a fix needed on Bonnie's side or a misunderstanding in our minds (we can discuss that here), we need to have a consistent place to go for answers, and that is Bonnie's site.
Please try to not include your cutting grid/ruler in photos, and/or use a representative sample and not all of our neatly arranged bundles. If you are trying to find an Accuquilt die size, say that is what you want -- but please respond with that info in private messages. I am open to private messages but I cut large, don't use specialty rulers or cutting systems but will make quick templates... I can help with things like how large I cut in private messages. Later on, please don't give spoilers on the layout.
And remember -- I am going Monochrome, it is my fabric and not my pictures that are black and white. I will very much enjoy seeing what the rest of you do, both in Bonnie's colors and your own colorways.
