Happy New Year and Allietare Reveal

Happy New Year

I had a great day, this first day of 2016. 

Bonnie Hunter gave us the 6th and final clue to the Allietare Mystery Quilt. I sewed most of the day and love how this quilt is turning out.
And now it's progressed to this although it's still just blocks. Check Bonnie's Mystery Mondy Linky Party for other quilts of Allietare.


I have also been working on this piece. It's one of 5 slices of a picture of the Ag Museum in Jackson, MS.

Paul's niece Paula and Jerel Yoder from Colorado are spending a few days in the area. Their quartet of 4 boys is a lively bunch! They are helping Amy do some painting inside of her house.
 I fixed cornbread and soup with a plate of cheese and took it over to them for supper. This recipe came from my sister Polly who got it from Rosedale Bible Institute many years ago, if my memory serves me right.  It's been used many times and I treasure Polly's handwriting on my card.

Susan Cleveland Workshop

Recently our Possum Town Quilters had a workshop with Susan Cleveland. She shared her Bodacious Big Thread Applique & More class with us.

I really like her dresden fan quilt.

The variety in placement and color make this quilt appealing to me.

And then these small quilts are her samples that she brought for our class.

She showed us many other quilts and explained different techiniques with us.

Here are some of our Possum Town Quilter's getting started on their own projects.




And this is my version of her three daisies.

Seven of us completed our quilts in time for our Christmas party.

Bonnie Hunter Allietare Mystery Quilt

I sewed all day today catching up on Bonnie Hunter's Allietare Mystery Quilt. 

It's been fun laying out the units on my design wall. 

Turning, flipping, and changing the units around.

But, who knows? It's a mystery and it may just turn into a medallion.
