Yes, I am in again with this one too. Last year was the first time for me to do the Bonnie Hunter mystery and I loved it. I would have never attempted it if I had seen the pattern first, but somehow having the clues presented the way she does makes it manageable. My neighbor came in while I was putting the rows together and initially thought they were tiles! Tomorrow will shop for my fabric. This year should be fun too. The one thing I am going to change with mine is that I am keeping my neutrals all the same. I am too OCD to have them be different. As far as the colors go I didn't mind those being different, but having different neutrals drove me batty.

I ordered the neutrals and will see what I can pull from my stash before ordering any more.
Good for Whittles! I see they're even doing two versions, a bright and a CW.

Miss Rita, your neutrals look so elegant, and what a perfect binding fabric.

My magentas have shipped!

I'm using the colors that match the paint chips. I might add more as time goes on.

Pulled all the fabrics I need from my stash and so proud of myself! I couldn't get the purples to show their true colors but there are light and dark purples.[ATTACH=CONFIG]561437[/ATTACH] I didn't add the whites to the photo. Finished all of my WIP, I am so ready to start

Another first time Bonnie Mystery quilter here!
here are my fabrics - any feedback welcome!
All from my stash except the magenta. The piece to the right doesn't
seem to fit in the greens or yellows so I'm setting it aside as a possible binding.
Happy Huntering everyone!

Lovely fabric, Tweety. I bet it's a great feeling having all those WIP's done, too.

Welcome to your first BH mystery, Path50. Your fabric looks great and I love the magenta piece.

I am really enjoying watching everyone's fabric choices and seeing all the comments here. I probably won't actually do this mystery, 1) because I don't have enough of any fabrics in my slowly growing stash, and 2) I can't afford to buy any right now, unless a thrift store suddenly supplies something But I am certainly going to print each clue and put it on my bucket list.

NZ Quilter,

If you PM me your address I will send you some fabric! I love to help out where I can and I don't want anyone to miss out on this because of this issue. I don't know if you will like my choices but I have the color paint chips and will try to match as close as I can. It will at least get you started. Sandra

NZ, why not make a smaller version? Cut it by half for more of a lap quilt or table topper.

That's a great idea! That will cut the work in half too I think that's what I'll do.
