    Default Anyone made Bonnie Hunter's Double Delight quilt?

    For reasons too long to post, I have to have this quilt made by the end of Sept. I have been cutting and sewing for three days and still on step 2. Any quilt that has 480 hst in one step has no choice but be beautiful. Here a pic of the quilt: http://quiltville.blogspot.com/2005/...ht-part-7.html . I'm using the same color choices.

    I think all Bonnie's quilts are gorgeous. I'm in the process of making two right now. Can't wait to see yours.

    Beautiful. I don't need any more additions to my bucket list. I'll just enjoy yours.

    Her quilts are great because of the variety of the fabrics and scraps she puts in them. I guess I am too lazy to piece all those individual half square triangles. I was already to do the "Roll, roll cotton boll" until the instructions said something like...do 400 half share triangles and I bailed. Your quilt will look super when you get it done and I applaud your diligence!!!

    done by the end of September, including quilting????????????? You will need to sleep, eat, maybe cook (or at least find time to call for delivery), a couple of showers, maybe some laundry, and oh, do you work for a living?? YIKES!!!!!! I suggest you phone a friend.

    I don't work and DH doesn't require a shadow and knows to eat when he's hungry. LOL. I'll machine quilt it a simple cross hatch pattern. Breaks over, time to cut and sew some more.

    That is a very pretty pattern. Are you using the same colors?
