It’s that time of the year. Bonnie Hunter has released the colors and yardage information for this year’s mystery quilt “Grassy Creek”. So I thought I’d review my Bonnie Hunter quilts. Over the past 12 years I’ve made nine mysteries: Orange Crush, Old Tobacco Road, Carolina Christmas, Orca Bay, En Provence, On Ringo Lake, Good Fortune, Allietare, and Frolic. In the picture above Good Fortune is not quilted, I’m not sure why I don’t have a finished picture of it. Frolic is not quilted as I need to prepare a backing.
Millennium Pyramids – Oklahoma Backroads – Sister’s Choice
Strip Twist – Texas Braid – Ocean Waves
Fun With Bricks – Playing With Jacks – Spoolin’ Around Leader/Ender Challenge
If you’ve followed by blog, you know I don’t just do her mysteries. There are a ton of free patterns on her website and she has 7 books. I’ve heard her speak 7 times (assisted with the quilts twice) and taken have 5 classes from her (Texas Braid, Blue Ridge Beauty, Carolina Chain, Garden Party, Jamestown Landing)
Happily Scrappily Irish – Scrappy Trips – Jared Takes A Wife
Nifty Thrifty – Strip Twist – Dancing Nine-Patch! (setting only)
Carolina Chain – Tumblers – Narragansett Blues!
Not included in the group pictures is Blue Ridge Beauty and Star Struck. I forgot about them until I listed out my classes. I sent these tops to a women who quilts them and gives them to a VA group.
I also have a few BH quilts in progress.
Another Strip Twist – there’s probably enough blocks for 2 quilts, Garden Party, Pineapple Blossom, Jamestown Landing, this years leader/ender project Easy Breezy, and I’m using the Dancing Nine-Patch setting on some crazy blocks.
I think these are all of my Bonnie Hunter quilts, but it doesn’t include quilts I’ve make using tips and tricks I’ve learn from her.
Thanks for mentioning this post on the QV group. You are a Bonnie superfan — your interpretations of her patterns are wonderful. (And, wow, FIVE in-person workshops!)
Wowzer! You have a wonderful selection of Bonnie quilts. I’ve followed her for years and introduced her blog to lots of quilters. I doubt I have even 20% of the quilts/ projects you do. Excellent review. Thanks for mentioning it on the chat group.
