Currently working on my P.S. quilt as a L/E to my version of Bonnie Hunter's Texas Braid

    Double wow! Lots of tiny pieces. It looks like you did a great job with your first quilt on the longarm. Lovely work.

    Most are Civil War blocks, a few are Farmer's Wife blocks, all finishing @6"

    I followed Randy @ The Barrister's Block Sow along a couple years ago..She is awesome & a friend of Bonnie Hunter.

    Just type in SOW-A-LONG blocks in her blogs search box.

    Add another wow from me! I've tried doing Bonnie's mystery quilts (twice) and so far, no finishes. Lots of pieces! Doing one quilt as a leader/ender while working on another is the way to go!

    Definitely, WOW! Great job. I am not sure I have the patience for tiny pieces anymore. Beautiful work.

    I have been making her mysteries since Roll Roll Cotton Boll. I look forward to them every year...And her L/E Challenges that come out in the summertime, usually june/july..I only make Bonnie quilts now....I Love her to pieces. I have every one of her books.

    I have Roll Roll Cotton Boll on my bed now. :) I also made a king size Celtic Solstice, two lap size Allietares and a half size En Provence (blocks finished at half the size she made).

    Omg! Another Bonniac! Hello! I made my Celtic Solstice 120" X 120"....I also made 2 versions of Allitaire. One for my BIL...My EnProvence will be quilted soon & going to a very Dear Friend since childhood.

    Are you on QuiltvilleChat or FB Open Studio?

    This is her L/E challenge from a couple years ago, 'Lozenges'


    This is her 'Ohio Stars & Rails" I hand quilted this one

    "Easy Street" mystery done in 30's fabrics...on the headboard is her Floribunda.

    Wow is right! I’m still recovering from one Bonnie Hunter quilt. You must be the all -time champ. Nice work.

    I've been following her for a couple few years before Roll Roll Cotton Boll. There are Ladies who have been with her since the beginning..I took up quilting when I became disabled. didn't have time for it before that.

    Debra, I'm not really a "Bonniac" :). And I'm not on either of the groups you mentioned. I like a lot of her designs and every couple of years I like to do her mystery quilt. She does have a lot of great tips for time saving and more accurate piecing.

    I like all of the quilts pictured, but I am especially drawn to the Texas Braid pattern. Beautiful work!
