The “Good Fortune” Mystery is finished! Well, kind of… Except for that one little square that I need to rip out… now that it is sewn into the quilt. That I didn’t even see until I took this picture. And now that I have seen it, I can’t unsee it. (Big sigh.) And of course…

Each new day is a gift, and there is something in each day that is going to bring something to the rest of our lives. It is important to recognize these moments or sparks, and document them to look back on!
The Design Progresses… Slowly
My new design is still that… a design. But progress IS being made! I did make the prototype cut… a fancy way of saying that I have cut it out of poster board! My designs fit together like a puzzle, and I am very picky about them fitting together perfectly. When I first started making…
Comparing Ourselves to Others
As I am assembling my “Good Fortune” blocks into rows and ultimately a quilt top, I am learning many things about quilting. I listed some of those in my last post. However, I have to admit that I am learning even more about myself. In the posting of these blogs, and in the viewing the…
“Good Fortune” is Revealed!
I hope 2019 is getting off to a good start for you and your loved ones! It is so hard to believe that time is marching by this quickly! I remember when 2007 sounded so far off. 2019!!! This week not only was the beginning of the New Year, but the reveal of Bonnie Hunter’s…
Haste Makes Waste!
I hope you all had a very Merry Christmas this week! We have not yet celebrated as a family. Parts of my family were at our church’s Christmas Eve candlelight service however. The service was beautiful, and it was a blessing to celebrate this wonderful night with family. This is a rare year for us, as…
Not So Good Fortune, and “Good Fortune” Week 4
Gee, I am re-reading last week’s post, and life seemed so much simpler then. LOL. Isn’t everything in life just relative? My three year old great-granddaughter did indeed help me decorate the tree last Monday. I put her in charge of adding my favorite icicles to the bottom half of the tree. (I have 24…
Bonnie Hunter’s 2018 Mystery Quilt, “Good Fortune” Part 3
Good grief! Is Christmas really only a little over two weeks away??? I am SOOO far behind this year! Between babysitting little ones, working on the store and the new designs to be released in early 2019, and the Mystery Quilt, I lost track of how quickly Christmas was approaching! I have been doing a…
Bonnie Hunter’s 2018 Mystery Quilt, “Good Fortune”
I have considered doing a Bonnie Hunter mystery quilt for many years now, but joining just before Christmas was a hindrance. I have folders on my computer of a couple of the PDF’s from years gone by, hoping that I would make it during another part of the year, but without the deadlines and community,…

The Bluebird of Hope
The very first kit I am offering for sale is the one I have named my “Bluebird of Hope”. I would like to explain how he came to be so named. When I was a child, we sang songs in our music class about bluebirds. There were also those adorable bluebirds in Disney’s “Cinderella” that…
