Some exclusions may occur. Your mileage may vary. Do not do this at home. All quilting as shown is done by professionals, do not attempt to do this without advanced training. My favorite color is blue. Taxes are collected in the state of California. Quilts are not returnable. Winners will be notified when I stop running from a gang of angry quilters.

Six of us from our weekend sew group are working on Bonnie Hunter's "Roll, Roll Cotton Boll." Several are already completed -- mine is kind of on the back burner for a little bit here, but I am loving it. I didn't buy any new fabric at all. I did get a few scraps from a couple friends.

www.quiltville.com is where you can see the pattern.

Here are a few more quilts made from scraps -- all going to our Guild to be donated to the hospitals here in town. They were fun to make.

This is a beautiful pattern. Does it have a name?

I would like to do this and plan on not buying fabric this next year. We will see how that goes. And then when I don't get it finished I can use it for the UFO challange.....

Ok. I'm in. Very nervous. But in. I have 4 large tote boxes of scrap fabric that I have amassed over the years from various sewing projects and been given. I was gonna post the question "does any one ever mix their fabric types? Does any one ever use corderoy, silk, lace, polyester, etc? Like the pioneer women used to?? But now I dont have to. Thanks!
(spelling errors due to rt mouse not working, contacts out of wack and just cant spell sometimes = ))
