As I was looking back at my Bonnie Hunter Mystery quilts (see previous post), I thought it would be interesting to remind myself of the other BH patterns I have made. I have included Bonnie's name for the pattern and my name for individual quilts [in brackets], if they differed. The year indicated was the year that I completed the project.
 |
| Carolina Chain (2015) |
 |
| Patches and Pinwheels (2015) |
 |
| Bricks and Stepping Stones [AKA Autumn Path] (2015) |
These were three of my first efforts. I was afraid of the small pieces, so I made the units a bit bigger than the pattern indicated.
 |
| Spiderweb [AKA Flowing Flowers] (2015) |
This was not a BH pattern--I've done several Spiderweb-type quilts; however, the idea for the offset blocks came from Bonnie's blog as she was constructing her own version.
 |
| Random Ohio Stars (2015) |
This was a favorite of mine--the little stars were just SO CUTE! 😸
 |
| Jamestown Landing (2016) |
Jamestown Landing (in red rather than blue) was my first complex BH pattern--lots of little pieces. It took me quite a long time to make the millions of HSTs required (okay, not really millions, but it seemed like it!). Finishing this one felt like an enormous accomplishment.

Pfeffernüse (2016) |
This is still one of my favorites--so warm and cozy in brown and red with its flannel backing.
 |
| Carolina Chain (2016) |
Another Carolina Chain, but this time I made it in Christmas fabrics. This is a great pattern to show off fabric prints.
 | |
| Twirl Around (2017) |
As soon as I saw this quilt pattern, I knew it would be my next project! I switched out the colors, making mine green and rust.
 |
| Sand Castles (2019) |
This was the most fun I've ever had making a quilt. Sand Castles went together so well that I felt like an expert. I love the way it turned out.
 |
| Winter Blues [AKA Summer Sunshine] (2021) |
When I saw the pattern for Winter Blues, nothing would do but that I make it in yellows. I don't know why--yellow isn't my favorite color, but I'm so pleased that I went with my impulse. This quilt is on my bed now, and it simply brightens my day every time I look at it! 😎
So, in looking back, I find that, including the mysteries, I have completed twenty-one Bonnie Hunter patterns! Wow--I wouldn't have believed that possible when I began. 😺
I'm not sure what my next BH project will be (other than this year's mystery), but I'm ready to make another quilt. Stay tuned!
Happy Quilting! 😸
