This is one of my very favorite Bonnie quilts. It is not overly busy and I adore the color combination. I'm kind of sad to see the process end. I just love looking forward to the weekly clues and trying to make time to keep up with them. I'm going to have this one professionally machine quilted with an overall pattern and definitely want to do the scalloped border.
Even the weather cooperated today. It's been dreary and raining for days, but no complaints here. After the drought we've be having here in California, every drop is a blessing.
I'm trying not to start many new quilts this year. Yeah, I know, you've heard that one before and not just from me. I do have to make three baby quilts and a retirement quilt. I'm going to try to do all three with fabric on hand. I have many UFOs and at least 20 tops that need quilting. I don't need to add to that list.
I'm thinking of donating some tops to someone who will quilt them for charity. Do you know of such a person?
You can donate tops to Quilts of Valor, and a volunteer long-arm quilter will quilt it.

ReplyDeleteHi! I run a charity called Covered in Love that gives quilts to the families of patients who pass away in the hospital where I work. Would love to have your tops! You can read details on the main page: http://katandcatquilts.blogspot.com/p/covered-in-love.html

Your "Bonnie" quilt is gorgeous! I haven't participated in any of her mysteries, but this one is my favorite. Nicely done!
ReplyDeleteYour Allietare quilt is wonderful. I am sad to see the mystery end as well but it was time to come out of the sewing room for air - ha! Thank you for commenting on my blog solsticestudio.blogspot.com I appreciate your kind words. It's also nice to know I'm not the only one with 20 tops waiting to be quilted.
