It's that time of year again! When Bonnie Hunter releases her yearly mystery quilt and the internet goes crazy with crazy quilters. Today I'm sharing my color choices (show below) and the progress I've made on the first clue.
This year, the quilt is Good Fortune. Head over to Bonnie Hunter's blog to check out the Good Fortune Mystery Quilt. There you will find all the details, such as the fabric requirements and the first clue. Don't dawdle, if you want to join in. The mystery quilt is only available for free for a short time. In February it will be removed from Bonnie's blog and likely appear as a standalone pattern or will be added to another book she's working on. You can also find loads of free patterns on the blog.
I've been cutting and sewing and pressing.
I even finished the first of many 4-patch units. This clue is the perfect unit to fit in between other projects you might be working on during the lead up to the winter holidays. I haven't decided what my next project is, but you can bet these little 4-patches will be acting as my leaders and enders along the way.

I like your color selection. The pinks will be lovely.
ReplyDeleteI really love your color scheme and you've pulled in some really fun fabrics! I also really like your selections of neutrals -- I definitely prefer the grey-leaning backgrounds/low volumes rather than the cream-leaning ones.
ReplyDeleteTerrific fabric combo... can't wait to see how your quilt comes together!
ReplyDeleteLovely colour scheme!
