Sunday Sample, Block 12

Bonnie Hunter's Block, "Joyeaux" from Quiltmaker 100 Blocks, Volume 12 is done ....and is my 12th block completed.  I have only three left (which includes the newest recently published).

Above are all the blocks I have completed -- I use Photo Grid to show them all, however it is a little crowed -- I may just start putting them on the design wall.

Sunday Sample, Block 11

Bonnie Hunter's Block, "Straights of Mackinac" from Quiltmaker 100 Blocks is now one of my favorites.  I could make this one a few more times.  The block is published in Volume 14.

November's Quiltmaker's 100 Blocks will be hitting the newsstands any day now -- I am looking forward to seeing what Bonnie has come up with.  There are 3 more blocks to catch up, then I may start playing with the layout. Since I like asymmetrical, there will be a little modern twist.

Sunday Sample, Block 10

The 10th Block added to my Sunday Sampler, is Bonnie Hunter's "Something Blue", from the Quiltmaker's 100 Blocks, Collectors Edition (Volume 10).  The newest Quiltmaker 100 Block will be on the stands in November....I'm ready.  I have three more of the older blocks and I will be caught up.

Every time I make another sample block, it feels like I have made a miniature quilt...all the parts coming together with a sense of satisfaction.

Sunday Sample, Block 8

Starting to get REAL!  I now have eight blocks done!  The newest block above, "Hovering Stars" is Bonnie Hunter's block in Volume #9, Summer 2014, Quiltmaker's 100 Blocks, Collectors Edition.

I do believe a setting has been decided....something non-traditional, but very scrappy.  The next Volume will be coming out very soon, so I hope to have a few more done.  So far, Bonnie has designed 14 consecutive blocks....with my 8, that's more than half-way.

Sunday Sample, Block #7

Seven Blocks are done!  I already have another one cut out, and can't wait to sew it together.  The newest block above, "Dancing Dashes" is Bonnie Hunter's block in Volume #11 of the Quiltmaker's 100 Blocks Special Edition, which is published twice a year.

There has been a lot of playtime on the design wall, looking for the perfect setting.  Regardless, it will be scrappy indeed......which brings me to the linky party "Oh Scrap" at Quilting is more fun than Housework.

Sunday Sample, Block #6

Six blocks done!  They are playing so nice together.  The newest block finished, "Jelly Bean Blast" (top left) is Bonnie Hunter's block in Volume #7 of the Quiltmaker's 100 Blocks Special Edition.  For those just joining my fun little project, I am making all of Bonnie Hunter's blocks that she has contributed (and will contribute) to the Quiltmaker's 100 Blocks, published twice a year.

And......since this a growing Scrappy Sampler top, I think I'll join "Oh Scrap" linky party.  

Sunday Sample, Block #5

Well, here I am....five blocks done.  Loved making the "Big Bang" block, which is Bonnie Hunter's from Volume #6, in the Quiltmaker's 100 Blocks Special Edition.

I just can't decide which one I will do next -- may need to toss the numbers in a hat to choose.

Sunday Sample, Block 4

With Four of Bonnie Hunter's Blocks, it is starting to look like an invested project!  Block #4 is called "Birthday Girl", published in Volume #2,  Quiltmaker's 100 Block collector's edition.

And then there were three!!!  Making the blocks in between several other projects -- I'm sooooo not in a hurry.  My hope is Bonnie will continue to design for the Quiltmaker's 100 Block series until there is enough for a nice size quilt.  

The newest block, top left, is called "Midnight Flight" and was published in Volume 4 of the Quiltaker's 100 Block collector's edition.  (Note:  I am not going in order of publication).

Sunday Sampler

It's time for another block for my Sunday Sampler quilt -- made from Bonnie Hunter's (Quiltville) scrappy blocks published by Quiltmaker's 100 Blocks.  Winston Ways (on top) was published in Volume 3 of the Quiltmaker's 100 Blocks and is seen all over Pinterest made into awesome quilts.  When several of the WW blocks are made, they nest very nicely together and form secondary blocks.

New Sampler

I am a big fan of Bonnie Hunter (Quiltville), and have collected all of her books and the Quiltmaker's 100 Blocks.  Bonnie has designed a block for all but the first publication --- so far she has 14! 

Recently, Bonnie published a picture of someone making all of Bonnie's Blocks as a sampler. Well......I love that idea.....so, I am starting a new long-term sampler project.  

My first finish...."Talkin' Turkey", from Quiltmaker's Volume 5.  Not sure why I started with this one, possibly because red is my favorite color!  The pattern for a quilt is also found in her Book "String Fling".
