Quiltville Mystery

Bonnie Hunter has started her annual mystery adventure! I have been eagerly sewing along with her mysteries for years and really enjoy this process of creating quilts. 

This year's project is called "Old Town" and  Bonnie's suggested colour combination is red, aqua, pink and neutrals. I am doing my version in navy, green, medium blue, and neutrals. The majority of my quilt is being made from Camille Roskelley's Shoreline fabrics. I just love this colour combination and bought 2 charm packs and yardage of my favourite prints. I will be adding in some stash scraps and lots of additional neutrals as we go along.

I enjoy sewing these units, so it went quickly for me this week. And as I was sewing along, I used some of the generated scraps to make a leader-ender County Clare block. It's not part of the mystery, but it's fun to make some  leader-ender blocks too.

I have already finished step #1 in the greens.

Here is what a squadron of flying geese look like! It's quite a pile! 

I am excited to see what step #2 will bring today!

Are you sewing along with the "Old Town" mystery adventure??
