Daisy Chain Mystery - Enough to See it Works

It's been a long stormy week in Oklahoma. We've had storms just about every evening since Monday night. Tuesday morning there was only one road open between downtown and the rest of the community due to river flooding. The water rose all day Tuesday, they let us out of work a bit early to ensure that everyone could get home in case the water overtook that route. The tornadoes missed us, as did the baseball sized hail that took out the windshield of one of my coworkers as she drove home Wednesday night.  The Scientist in Training had been in Florida visiting friends, thankfully none of her flights were delayed and she got home a few hours before the Wednesday night storms.  I've been AWOL from all blogging activities as we've had the router unplugged in the evenings due to the severe weather.  We lost a cable box earlier this month due to lightening, so we've been careful to unplug stuff during the more recent storms. 

Stitching time has been similarly limited this week.  But I did finish enough blocks of the Daisy Chain Mystery quilt to see how the pattern was going to play out with my fabrics.

I'm pretty happy with out it's turning out.  Thank you Alison for such a fun mystery quilt. You can check out more versions of this quilt over at Little Bunny Quilts.  I need to finish off two more of the star blocks and a several more of the alternate blocks before I can start assembling the quilt.  Then I'll decide if I want to add any borders or not. 

Linking up with Tish's UFO Busting party this morning.  I'm hoping to get Daisy Chain done before it ends up on my UFO list.  For those in the US have a great Memorial Day Weekend.
