Orange Crush - Intro - Bonnie Hunter - Mystery Quilt

As I stated on the summary page, I have gone totally insane and added another project to my list.  I am joining the group of ladies online who are going to do Bonnie Hunter's Orange Crush which was originally presented in 2005 as a mystery quilt.  We are going to do one clue per week and let's just say I'll give it the old college try.

In preparing for retreat last week, I made a list of the "constant" fabrics I would need for this and for Easy Street.  Fortunately, Sew Krazee in Granbury was a huge help for me.  I was able to pick up the orange with small red leaf, the solid black, an orange/red for border, and the red with black to add to some black and white that I picked up on my shopping trip with Allison and a few others that I already had.  I think I have everything except the back - even binding.  I am ready to go.



If you are interested in participating with us:  here is the link to the intro:  http://quiltville.blogspot.com/2005/06/orange-crush-intro.html   It is a free pattern on Bonnie's website.
