Bonnie Challenge Update

I didn’t think I was getting very far with my Bonnie Challenge, Sister's Nine Patch, but a count of the blocks finished so far shows I am within 8 blocks of goal. It is so amazing how fast the blocks build up doing them as Leaders and Enders.  The pattern (in Adventurers in Leaders and Enders) calls for 169 blocks, which I am not attempting. This will be a baby quilt so only shooting for 80 blocks in a setting 8 X 10.  The yellow fabric I found at a thrift store was the inspiration to make this quilt. Don’t know if it is identifiable but it is Raggedy Ann and Andy.

I’ve also added the first border to Easy St. and hope to get the second on this week. Not sure if I will get it quilted but  at least will have it as a flimsy before the next mystery starts.

And a border on the Scrappy Trips. Finally I can link up with some progress. So linking up with Jo's Country Junction

  2. The raggedy Ann will be cute in there with the 9-patches. 80 blocks sounds like a LOT for a baby quilt. Congrats on two almost finishes before the 28th.

    1. Thanks Mary, and yes you are right, it is a lot. Have decided to make it two quilts instead, sort of a two-for-one deal.
