My last post about Bonnie Hunter's visit to our local guild is continued below, with more pictures of Bonnie's bodacious quilts!
Bodacious |
This one is appropriately named Bodacious! Her bow ties are made from four patches that were leaders and enders.
Easy Street Back |
East street front and back. Bonnie sure has me opening up to use more on the backs of my quilts than just plain muslin. And to use colors I don't think I like!
Winston Ways |
Midnight Flight |
This was a mystery quilt, and I remember making a gazillion half-square triangles, and if I use Bonnie's scrap user system in the future, I will already have them as bonus triangles from another quilt. What a concept! Bonnie talks about it on her blog (Here)
Blue Skies |
Blue Skies, which has yellow and blue - two of my favorite colors. Lots of strings here.
Cotton Candy |
Bonnie has no daughters, and said she just had the urge to make something totally "pink". It is sure beautiful! Love the backside also!

Pineapple Crazy was just amazing in person. Bonnie took leftover pieces from everywhere, and created a paper-pieced lovely quilt, using fabric that many quilters would have (or did!) throw away.

Next up was Jamestown Landing, and it is on my bucket list. I love it!

She used creams, tans up to "brown paper bag" color for the neutrals, and lovely blues.
She closed the show with this wowzer!!! It's her hexie quilt, and she's nearing the finish on it.
Here's what I worked on recently:
I'm directing you over to Judy Laquidara's blog for Design Wall Mondays - my favorite Monday morning activity is looking at all the quilts there. (Here)

Some of the pictures are a little fuzzy, and I apologize, but most of the time my mouth was open in awe, and my hand wasn't too steady on the camera. Thanks to Bonnie Hunter for the amazing show of her quilts. She is one of my heroes.

Thanks for sharing Bonnie's show. There were some "new to me" quilts in there.
ReplyDeleteThat is a cute little quilt you have made there. : )
Awesome show.....thanks for sharing Bonnie's quilt with us! She's my hero, too! And that's a sweet little quilt you made! I love it!
ReplyDeleteSuch fun - I'm always amazed at how much Bonnie gets done in a day. I bet it was really amazing to see all of her quilts in person.
ReplyDeleteLoved this Bonnie Quilt show. I Love her patterns. I am gradually getting my scraps organised using her system.
