A friend of mine, Deb and I did the Bonnie Hunter mystery quilt, "Chilhowie" this year. It really helped doing it together as we kept each other motivated. Deb suggested that we get the tops done for our small guild meeting in February! A lot of sewing, but great to have a deadline. It was another great mystery and we both loved the way it turned out.

My quilt top all finished!

The two tops together. Now to get mine quilted. I found backing which I need to piece yet and it will go to my long arm quilter. |

I did most of the sewing on my trusty 15-88 Singer treadle from 1951

These little baskets which are available at dollarma are great for keeping the units organized. Bonnie suggests clipping them together in sets of 10.

I also needed to test a FW so the 9 patches were sewn on that machine.

I like your quilt. I hadn't paid any attention to Bonnie's mystery this year, so your quilt is the first one I've seen.
