Allietare Week 3 Bonnie Hunter Mystery

Clue 3 began with pulling more neutrals for variety and more strips from the bins.
A simple clue but I wanted to keep it scrappy.

I even pulled that Scotty Dog fabric from the revered 30's collection. 


I even pulled some random pre cut neutral squares.



I added some greens from the 30's collection. they go well.
I ended up cutting down some 2.5" strips as well.


Here are my twosies- over 30 different neutrals. So much fun.




The headless chook at the bottom fits with the decapitated geese from the last clue. 
Not to self- don't cut fabric after 8pm.


The 4 patches. Love this colour combo. Considering a quilt of greens an neutrals just like this.


Happy Quilting

    1. Thanks Carolyn. I figured as my grey is quite dark that the addition of neutrals in this colour way would compliment it.

  10. Yes, the green and neutral is very calming, isn't it? This is going to be lovely, and very different, too, I think!
