On Black Friday 2018, Bonnie Hunter, of Quiltville Fame, introduced the first of many clues to her annual Mystery Quilt, called Good Fortune. Although the clues wrap up in January, it has taken me time to bind, label and deliver to the new owner.

I did chuck a lot lot out about 2 months ago, but again have quite a selection of leftovers. I seem to keep everything!

Scrap Project Continued from The Quilt Yarn

OK, so maybe this is not the fastest way of getting rid of some scraps!

I have been working pretty solidly on this project

Decided to make 20 blocks, set in a rows of 4 x 5 blocks. The whole room has been taken over by this project. This is actually the space where the new machine will sit, once it finally arrives in Australia (getting slightly impatient now!)

Anyway, completed my 20 blocks and today finally started working on the surrounds and sashings.

Had to do a few alterations...the colour arrangement in one of the blocks did not ...
