I am loving Bonnie Hunter’s On Ringo Lake mystery!
This is going to be fun !
I know that I will fall behind, but so long as I print out Bonnie’s clues, I’ll be able to create this quilt.
I’ve been auditioning fabrics. I am using up scraps, too, but didn’t take a picture of them.
The nine patches from Clue #1 are done!
I’m off to a great beginning!
Thank you, Bonnie!
I am linking up with lots of other Bonnie fans at Quiltville!

Yay! My January UFO goal was to finish quilting Aunt Sukey Spins Off.
I am so happy to say that the quilting is done, but so is the binding. This quilt is finished and out of the sewing studio!!!
I am linking this finish up with One Monthly Goal at Elm Street Quilts and Patchwork Times.
If you own EQ7, then you can get the project file for this quilt by clicking on the Freebies tab at the top of this blog.
My scrap bags are all full. Each and every one of them.
I have decided to use Bonnie Hunter’s Scrap User’s System.
It is quite surprising to me how many strips, strings and crumbs I have managed to cram into one bag.
This is going to take a while.

My version of Bonnie Hunter’s Orca Bay design is finished. I gave the quilt to a long-armer. It is the first time that I have trusted someone else to do the quilting on a quilt top that I have made.
Although the long-armer did a good job, she did not do what we had discussed. She showed me some creative ideas and I said to run with them. For whatever reasons, her ideas never materialized and she quilted an all-over design.
Because this is a scrappy quilt with so many prints, I am okay with the quilting. Anything really fancy would be difficult to see (although what we had discussed would’ve been great).
Interior design is not my strong point, so I tried not to get my fancy tv tray bedside tables in the picture. LOL!
Uh-oh! Maybe I should have looked before I took this closeup. Sheesh! The quilt police may get me for this one!
