Countdown to Christmas

Now I’ve finished 8 blocks of the Moda bake shop quilt along, still several blocks behind.  It’s so fun and really no hurry!  Need to get busy on the next Good Fortune clue...

And 2 more

Good Fortune Monday link up

today is the day to link up progress on the mystery https://quiltville.blogspot.com/2018/12/mystery-monday-link-up-part-3.html
I’ve done 50 units and 100 bonus squares. Will get the remaining done in a couple of days.

Meanwhile I started the Christmas quilt a long at Moda Bakeshop, here are blocks 1&2. Interesting construction of block 2!  This started on December 1 so I’m behind but in no hurry..

Clue 3, Good Fortune

these are slow going, 4 seams to every unit.  But 30 so far and twice that on the 2” bonus blocks!

Clue 2, Good Fortune

This was the total of first clue

Here are a few of 2nd clue

Will be interesting to see how the black as neutral works out!

Good Fortune

I started working on Bonnie Hunter’s annual mystery, Good Fortune, and switching around and substituting colors with a black neutral. Here are the first 4-patches. Slow and steady gets to the goal!

Here are the colors I’ve chosen

QOV is finished

this big beauty is done and ready for presentation. Next up is getting ready for Bonnie Hunters annual mystery. I have all my fabrics pulled, except for neutrals.  And as usual I don’t want to buy any new fabric, so it’s dig through my stash time!

Update, this quilt was presented to a Vietnam vet, it was heartwarming to know someone is enjoying it!

One more baby quilt

This one is for my cousin’s daughter who is due the end of November. That’s the last of family babies but I continue to make quilts for kids.  It’s now quilted and ready to mail.
