WIP Grassy Creek


Wednesday in Progress, WIP, This is where I am at with the Bonnie Hunter mystery quilt. I am just starting step 5 and these little 9 patches. They are cute. I love how my greens and oranges are looking together. I still have the other units to cut for step 5, I only started step 5 on Sunday this week. Yes I am behind, many have their tops done. Slowly I go. 


Step 1 is the Yellow triangles, and it was to be grey but my grey is now purple, they are all done and counted. My step 6 all the purple strings is getting closer to be done. I have been kind of using them as leaders and enders, go get the small triangle on the string units. I do not have to thing about it too much. 


Oh these steps, 3 and 4. These steps are hard. This is where I am slow. I have lots to still do here. I had to do some redoing. I now have 8 sets that are nice. but I am a long ways yet. 

I will have to do some more work on this. Might get a little more done this week on it.

Grassy Creek



I have been doing Bonnie Hunter's Mystery quilt for many years now. I love doing the fall mystery that finishes up around the new year. I have more of them undone then mysteries finished. A few are quilt tops, and many are blocks done but need to sew more. 


Well I did ok but I still have so much to do yet. Top photo is steps 1 and 2 done and a part of step 4 on the far left. I liked all the colours but the grey. I just could not see doing a quilt with 3 yds of grey, so I changed the grey to Purple. 



Steps 3 and 4 I only have a few done. So this step tripped me up. I need to read better. I am redoing many of them and got to know my seam ripper very well on these steps. 


I so far have not done step 5 but love the strings in step 6. So I have part 6 well on the way. So much purple. But better then grey. 


I have many sewn and a good stack that need the iron. I did not use the paper. Now there has been the big reveal on Bonnie's site, but I am sure it will take me to the end of the month before I am sewing blocks together.
