Grassy Creek
 

Bonnie Hunters 2020-21 Mystery is finally done, fresh out of the dryer. I waited till after the reveal to start, and I am glad I did. I made changes to suit my personal choices, I changed the sashing to diamonds, the nine patch to a square in a square, I also changed the last row/border blocks and the border itself. Not a fan of the larger grey inner border, but in the end math dictated the size based on my border units.

All Grunge Fabrics
108 square
Wool batting
Quilted on my Innova longarm using a Dogwood Blossom edge to edge panto enlarged to 18 inches.
I opted for a grey backing that is pieced.
King Tut thread

I really loved making this and will probably make it again in a twin size and play with the sashing units. Once again Bonnie hit a home run with this pattern and her excellent instructions. Thanks for looking.

Beautiful work as always. Like your changes, and especially like the border. I think the gray is just right.

Very pretty quilt! Your version of Grassy Creek turned out very nicely!

It's a beautiful quilt!

that is absolutely gorgeous. love the orange. i do wish it were mine. so many pieces in there, it must have taken quite a bit of time to put together. wonderful job!! https://cdn.quiltingboard.com/images/smilies/smile.png

I really like the Gray. It adds a different dimension to the quilt. Well done.

Your quilt is beautiful.

Pretty colors. Love the touch of grey.

Pretty colors and block design!

So nice to see the creative changes you made to make it unique. Love how the colors all play out. Great finish!

Your quilt is beautiful. You did such a great job.

Oh, that is beautiful! I love your colors, and the borders are so striking!

Beautiful work, Tallchick! I love the quilted flower motif, it is a nice counterpoint to the geometric piecing.

Very nice finish! I love your changes to the project and your color choices.

I don't know if I'm doing the mystery this year or not, I have another project that I need to get finished. If that is done in time, I'm thinking I will. So if I'm available, I've been thinking of using my box of solids this year -- your project shows that might be a very good direction for me to go.

Love how you changed it up, TallChick. Quilting really complements the pattern.

You are so creative. I struggled to keep up with Bonnie's instructions on a week time basis. If I had waited until the end I would have really been too overwhelmed to even start. Love your rendition and your quilting is perfect.

great job! This quilt is so pretty and colorful. Be proud of this one.

Very pretty quilt. I agree with you that I like to see the end result before I start using fabric colors that I don't care for. I guess that is why I don't like mystery quilts to work on

This quilt is amazing! I love the colors, the beautiful borders, everything about it. https://cdn.quiltingboard.com/images/smilies/heart.gif The grey is the perfect foil for the orange and gold and the deep maroon is perfectly placed.

Ordinarily, I don't care for grunge or grey, but this is a fabulous combination and a wonderful quilt!

Beautiful quilt! I love the idea of waiting until they showed the finished quilt to start. I've never liked picking fabrics and working blind.

Your version of Grassy Creek is perfection to my eyes. I love your blend of pattern changes, fabric choices and your border is perfect! It's not too much, not too busy and still has great color contrast. What a fabulous finish you have here - thanks for sharing!
