Leader & Ender Challenge for 2013/2014

I have been a Bonnie Hunter fan for several years and have a couple of mysteries "in the works".  It is nice to have a free scrappy concept when piecing quilts--very freeing.  The biggest problem is just getting everything organized between the lights and medium/darks and in the right strip sizes.  The newest Leader & Ender challenge was announced on Quiltville's Quips & Snips yesterday.  It will be the Split 9 Patch.  I started last years Spoolin', but this will be way faster and doable.  Especially since I have an Accuquilt Go to make the 6 2 1/2 inch squares.  I will probably use her recommendation for the Easy Angle ruler for the half square triangles.  That way I can just cut 2 1/2 inch strips.  Here is the sample from Bonnie's website.  As you can see one half is mostly medium and the other half is light.
