Clue 7. Bonnie Hunter mystery

Mmmmmm, there was an update with clue 6. We needed an extra unit. The first bits had been made so just needed assembly . So all done….

Next up was clue 7. Around 100 units. 

All done.

The sew and flip extra bonus units have been sewn. All these HST units measuring 1/2” cut have been completed 

I’m ready for clue 8.

Hilly houses......

A few weeks back I was lucky enough to win 11  house blocks measuring 9". These were from my Heathcote Quilt group. I go once a month. Last Xmas we were given a little parcel with a pattern for a house block and pieces of fabric for the house itself. The rest was up to you. If you completed your block and handed it in you received a raffle ticket. Well I was the lucky one.

I was reading Ellen's blog . http://littlejewelquilts.blogspot.com.au/2014/08/making-it-happen.html.

She was talking about her house blocks she had dug out of the cupboard. 

This made me think of mine. So out they came and a quilt top was put together. 

I did follow the tutorial from Bonnie Hunters blog.

 quiltville.blogspot.com.au/2005/06/happy-scrappy-houses.html. 

I changed the houses to go one direction and made the borders larger. I wanted the borders to show so I only used two colours. It looks like you are going up hill. Now all I have to do is get it quilted. Not sure what to do but I'll keep thinking.

 Thankyou Ellen for making me get a move on with them.

Quilt cam with Bonnie & FNWF at Gone Stitchin'

I was actually home today to watch Bonnie's Quilt Cam LIVE.... at Quiltville

So I sat down and started cutting my 4 1/2" background squares and my scrappy 2 1/2" squares. Lots of them were needed. Then I went to do a practice square.

I have started my " Good Night Irene Quilt" & following the sew along over with the others at 

Terry's Treasures

I started the sewing and have linked up with Cheryll and the others doing Friday Night with Friends over at Gone Stitchin'

So tonight I am continuing cutting 2 1/2" blocks.
