Well, I thought I was going to keep up with the six part Modern Mystery quilt but fate intervened. I have done step 2. Here it is:
Half circles inserted into the white background fabric. They weren't as scary to stitch as I thought they would be. I made a small clip in the halfway point and the quarter and three-quarter points and this helped to ease the seams together. They are still waiting to be pressed which is why the top one looks like it has a flattened part to the curve seam! It is nice the summer holidays are coming up. I might actually get something finished :-)
