    She will post the clues as she has a chance. No set date and you work at your own pace. All the parts will be on her blog and she will have a link to a printer friendly page. Check her blog when you get ready to start the next step.

    So here's the fabric I've gathered for Bonnie's new mystery. I've never done one of hers before so I'm really looking forward to it. I've never thought of using pinks and greens together before, so it'll be interesting to see whether I like it when it's done or not... LOL

    Anyone else want to post piccies of what they are going to do?

    I've decided to do the quilt also. Have looked at my fabric and I have quite a few choices in my stash. I have not brought any of them out yet, thought I would wait a little longer. She mentioned we would be using strips too. Should be fun.

    I have so many scraps, I'm hoping to whittle them down to a manageable size. Can't wait!

    That is why Bonnie does big quilts, they use up scraps faster. But my problem is that I made two crumb quilt tops and (lap size) and a lap size boxy star and now a lap size chunky churn dash and I still have not put a dent in my stash of scraps...

    I guess I am not making the quilts large enough.. My scraps keep growing. Each time I cut for a quilt or cut for a border, my scraps keep growing.... I guess I need to work faster...

    I'm game! Never did a mystery quilt, but have plenty of stash. This will be my "free" entertainment project for this winter. No pattern or fabric to buy!

    I'm planning on doing this quilt. I haven't gathered my fabrics, yet, but I think I will be doing that later today since it's only 5 more days until the first clue :D I love Bonnie's quilts!!

    I am going through the Quilting Board digests and just found this notice/thread ... along with another one.
    I am going to do this, but I am really depending on all of you to remind me through this thread that Miss Bonnie has posted another clue - - I do not do surfing, except through this site, and well - - the excuses go on and on.
    Looking forward to "working" with y'all <wave>

    Here is an excerpt from her website.... Looks like there will be a clue every week.

    "The first clue will be posted Friday, November 19th! It's loaded, and scheduled to go live on my blog, Quiltville's Quips & Snips, in the wee small hours of the morning!

    I have it set to release there as I will be out of town and unable to update my website remotely, but I can plan posts and pre-date them on the blog so they will post when I need them to! ((Ah, the wonders of the internet! Gotta love it!))

    Be sure to check back every Friday through the rest of November and December for each next clue untl the Mystery is complete!"
