It seems like I've fallen off the face of the earth, but I promise I have not. I've been down in the sewing room every second of the day I can squeeze in.
You know how much I love my scrappy quilts, and when Bonnie Hunter announced her mystery last November, I knew it was going on the top of my list of things to do.
This year's quilt was...
The colors just melted my heart, and of course, that of a certain 5 year old who claimed it was hers before it was even done. LOL!!
I kept up with each clue weekly and even had time to work on another of her quilts at the same time.
This is "Kismet". I actually saw the quilt on the "Quiltville's Open Studio" Facebook page, during the mystery. With the gentle prodding of one of the members, I decided to take on the challenge myself.
It was so much fun to work on, that I found myself staying up to all hours of the night piecing away on it. The string blocks are pieced on phone book pages.
One might think that my scrap bins are about empty after all the Bonnie quilts I've done in the past year...but oh NO!!
About the time I thought I was going to put them away for awhile, I found another pattern on my computer that I saved years ago.
Hopefully I will have that to share with you soon!
Sew, what's on your list of to-do's this year?
