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…

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.

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…
Quilting Letters into Your Borders
I make quite a few t-shirt quilts, and I love to quilt the borders with information about the t-shirts that are in the quilt. For the high school quilts, I like to put the person’s full name on one border, the high school name on another, and “Class of …” on a third. Activities can…
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,…
