Working on the first instalment of "Good Fortune", Bonnie Hunter's new mystery quilt:
I'm using the treadle machine again this year. The only adventurous thing I'm doing with this quilt is moving Bonnie's colours around, mainly because of the amount of fabric I have in the various colours, and partly because I want to do something at least a bit different. So Bonnie's red is my blue.
The last batch of 4-patches lined up ready to go through the machine:
And that's week one done.
Added later: Linked to Bonnie's weekly link-up HERE.

well done Vireya you have been very busy.
So fast, I haven't even started. A cup of coffee now, and then....
Ooh! I like it. Blue is my favorite.
Well done! You are so quick of the mark! I haven't started yet, but I was just looking out reds. I'm now waiting for the link-up to open to see what other people have made of the colour descriptions of "the neutrals".
Oh no! That's a bit of a drastic way to get new glasses.
I'm going to do the mystery too when I have finished the last one.
I'm not sure if I'm going to do the orange or change it. It's going to be the main colour and I really don't have enough scraps so it would only be one colour. I'll decide when I see some of the link ups. Well done to get part 1 done.
Oh, well done! I've managed to get about 20 four-patches done, but hope to catch up over the course of the week.
I'm looking forward to seeing how your color shift works out!
love the colors you have chosen,,,,,and we might have the same singer,,,mine is 1926,had to get her out last night as we had no power for two days,,had not seen her for a couple years, been a long time since i had time to check blogs.....god bless
Hope your new glasses help you with the mystery quilt. I still need to have my mystery quilted. Will be interested to see the change of colour in the pattern.
Loving your beautiful fabrics Vireya!
All power to your legs! You are off to a great start.
Beautiful! How fun that you are sewing on a machine that looks exactly like one of mine :)
Your blues look lovely.
Those blues are going to make a gorgeous quilt! I'm curious as to what colors you have swapped. Me, well, since it's my first Mystery quilt, I'm not that adventurous. :) I love the fact that you are using your treadle machine. I have two that need to be repaired so that I can learn to use them, but alas, that will have to wait.
I love your blues, can't wait to the next step.
It's always fun to change Bonnie's colors around a little. Love the blues!
I like your blue colors, later I will take some too.
Thanks from Germany
Evi
Love blues... How big will you be doing Bonnie's Mystery ?????
