Here is a link to Patrice's response... http://www.quiltingboard.com/qb-help...s-t166062.html . I did send a PM to her for alternatives, but it looks like a new thread would work. Would everyone be agreeable if I started a thread entitled 'Orca Bay Bonnie Hunter mystery quilt sew along' (or something like that) and posted under Main? We can then start posting pictures of the fabrics we've selected while we wait for the fun to start. Let me know

I am for sure. I did last years mystery and I have it almost finished. I love doing those. I have more scrapes now than I did last year, so it should be fun. I's with you.

I have been a follower of Bonnie Hunter and quiltville. I will print out all parts and start after the holidays too. Bonnie has a group on Yahoo where she will let you know when each part of the mystery is up. She is also on Facebook and being her friend there, will get you the updates as well. There are many ways to get the info. I read her blog she updates on Facebook each day. You will enjoy her type of quilting. Her patterns are very easy to understand and follow.

Bonnie Hunter has posted the intro to her new Mystery Quilt over at Quiltville, anyone going to give it a go?

I've never done a Mystery Quilt before and I'm not the best "piecer" there is, I tend to do more applique. I've got the Yellow Brick Road pattern down though. All straight edges! LOL
But I think I'm gonna give it a go. I've got tons of scraps that need to be used up. Anyone else??!

I hate to be stupid,,,but I don't get how all of this works. Is there a cost to all of the directions? I just went to Bonnie's site and it didn't help. (Maybe it's the bad cold that I have---making my brain fuzzy)..You go to her site once/week and there are printed directions? She e-mails directions to you??? So, you don't know what you are making until the end??? How do you know which colors she recommends? How do you know where to sew each color??

I will wait to see what the quilt ends up looking like. As a rule, I usually LOVE mystery quilts, but Bonnie doesn't quilt like I do and many times I can take what she has done and do it my way (once I know the entire pattern).
