T Row Studio Posted May 20, 2014 Report Share Posted May 20, 2014 Here is my 2014 Bonnie Hunter Mystery Celtic Solstice. I have not quilted many Big quilts so this was intimidating I added several borders to make it a bit bigger it measures 85 x 85 I put a very plush backing on it with a 80/20 batting in it the quilt is quite heavy but that is ok for Canadian winters. The borders I did different stitches in and just a boring meander in the centre ,but I love how it turned out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enchanted Quilting Posted May 20, 2014 Report Share Posted May 20, 2014 Love to see this finished...our guild may be doing this one next. We are trying to see if we can make a smaller (table top) version as some of our guild members thought it was too big to tackle (along with the 39 projects they already have going)!!

T Row Studio Posted May 20, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 20, 2014 Here are a few pictures of the quilting close up hope you can see it nothing fancy still need more practice. There is picture of it at hanging at the Red Deer quilt show in Alberta and a picture of the Back also I enjoyed this Bonnie Mystery a lot I would make this one again. I only made the small version (75" x 75")and added more borders to make it larger (85"x 85") I am sure you could make a smaller version easily.

LindaSteller Posted May 20, 2014 Report Share Posted May 20, 2014 You did a great job of quilting it! I really like the motifs you chose.

T Row Studio Posted May 20, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 20, 2014 Do it Lisa !!!! When I do her mysteries she posts on Friday mornings I am up bright and early to get the clue....Friday everybody knows it is my sew day and I get to work on that clue sometimes I can her clue done on the same day sometimes not but always try and have it done before the next clue some people dont like mysteries because of picking colors and not knowing if their colors will look all right I say pick colors you like and have some contrast and it seems to work out. jump in on the next one starts the friday after thanksgiving...I think Terry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
