| Comments: | I am new at this patchwork quilting although I have sewn mostly for my daughters and lately for myself. This type of sewing offers a bit more creativity in that you really get to choose your colors and designs. Can you have a tutorial in how you work quick blocks and how you piece odd pieces with irregualar shapes together. Great stuff! Thanks, Monica |

! I have recentlly joined the QuiltQuesters and Cove Piecemakers in La Grande, and Cove , Oregon and someof the women kept talking about your website, so I had to come look.... It will take me a long time to wander through your site.... looks wonderful! I wanted to join the quilt group so that I could get some of my quilts done, and now I have twice as many projects and a ton of scraps and crumbs.... and I was afraid I would use up all m y fabric.... nope,.... now I have more! The more (pieces) the merrier! |

I belong to the St. Stephen Missionary Baptist Church, (in Pontiac, Michigan) quilting ministry. We're a small group, focused on utility quilts for those in need. We formed 4 yrs ago and have done our best to keep up with a supply for our demand. Currently, we have a new family that just joined our church & they had a need for 9 quilts. Our fingers(we sew all of our quilts by hand) are busily working. Sew far we've donated 2 full sized quilts and we're working on 3 twin sized. "all things in time!" :) |

I enjoy piecing the quilt tops more so than the quilting part...I have pieced together the pattern Crayon Box and it was so much fun. My eight year old granddaughter helped with matching the scraps and is so proud of her efforts. I may have a quilting partner for life! Looking forward to making more quilts and learning more from your website. Barbara Keiffer, Columbus NJ |

Your way of quilting is exactly what I love to do I have been quilting since the 60's when I was a teenager and belong to a 4H club. They gave us a quilt pattern one time and that got be hooked I made it out of old suits my mother wore to work and had decided she did not want anymore they were double knit polyester. it was a heavy quilt and I never quilted it myself I gave it to a cousin and she had it quilted and finished after that I used lots of scraps and did a grandmother flower quilt for my mother. completely by hand. I have since been machine piecing and started machine quilting about 8 years ago and just love it. Thnak you for allowing me to view your site.

| Comments: | Dear Bonnie - I've been haunting your site for months and wanted to let you know how much I am in love with your quilts and using shirts. I love the unique look that your quilts have. I've been quilting for twelve years and collecting fabric for probably at least that long. As much as I admire all the new fabrics, I love finding the bargain and new sources for fabric. I went to goodwill and found a bunch, but some were "too pretty" to cut up (just yet). I love the feel of a cotton shirt after a day at the pool. I can't wait to finish your mystery quilt in Quiltmaker. thanks for sharing your gift with the world!!
keep on quiltin' kathy lacy |

| Comments: | Thank you so much for your ideas, instructions and photos. I have started your "Diamond String" pattern and I love it! I'm hooked on string quilts. Do you have any instructions or photos of a quilt called "Chinese Coins"?. I believe that's what it's called. It looks like various width-wise strips with sashing between the rows. love your siteand thanks again. |

| Comments: | Bonnie, you have been such an inspiration to me! Having worked in a department store fabric department for almost 15 years (back when there was such a thing), you can imagine the stash I have accumulated. I have ignored my love for quilting for the last 20 years or so, but you have reignited that passion! Now my favorite place to go is Good Will, where we too have a "color of the week." OMG, what a bonanza! My stash is once again growing, but better yet, my two sewing machines and I are once again becoming best friends. I am working on Smokey Mountain Stars, and will send you an pic when I'm done. Thanks for the wonderful website and blog, which by itself could be a full time job to maintain. Your days must be more than 24 hours long...you are an inspiration!! |

| Comments: | Dear Bonnie - I just discovered your website. And I absolutely love your free patterns. A member of my quilting group emailed the link to me and I enjoyed an hour and a half looking at your patterns. I, too, love scrap quilts. As a matter of fact, I just came up into my bedroom to lay out my latest scrap quilt on my bed to see how big I needed to make the borders. It gives me such a great feeling to know that I've made a beautiful creation from a bunch of scraps that someone else may have discarded. I've been bitten by the quilting bug badly. I can't seem to get enough. Unfortunately my sewing machine is set up in my dining room. There is no table in my kitchen, so my husband and I usually eat our evening meal on our coffee table in the living room! He's great about it because he knows how much I love to quilt. My 3 children and 3 grandchildren are the recipients of many of my creations. What a wonderful gift a quilt makes.
Thanks for a great website filled with so many wonderful ideas. All the best. Judy |

Saw lots of things I liked, but your web pages were the first to show me how I could accomplish something I loved, easily. I know there will be lots of sewing time involved, but I'm no longer stressed out about color planning and shopping for the perfect fabrics. Thank you for posting your wonderful tutorials! |

| Comments: | I was interested that you live in Winston-Sallem (Wallburg). I am a W-S native and familiar with Wallburg but have not lived there since 1976 and I still have relatives there. Have you visited Old Salem? The coffee pot there would make a beautiful quilt if some one would design a pattern, hint, hint.
It is great to know that someone from my old "stomping grounds" has quilts published in Quiltmaker (which I subscribe to) and has published a book on quilting! I am realtive new to quilting (2 years) and I am absolutely obessed!! Just ask my husband. Quilting crazy, Betty |

| Comments: | i love your site, Im a fairly new quilter done a lot of reading, seen a lot of quilty sites and taught myself. Ive made some rag quilts and t-shirt quilts now I want to go on to 'real' quilts! Ive learnt a lot from your site and very inspired. Ive been collecting fabric for some time I enjoy that a lot! My husband says no more till I use what Ive got, very unreasonable and he doesnt know how long that would take even working day and night!!
Thank you for all your help. |

| Comments: | LOVE your website. Have it saved over in my Favorites, so I can go again and again for fresh ideas. My Mom used to do strip piecing when I was little, but I couldn't recall exactly how to do it, as it was nearly 60 years ago, but I remembered the pleasures of stripping the paper from the backs.
You have given me inspiration for quilts for my teenage grandsons. Thanks SO much for the free patterns. I am disabled, and although I go dream at my local quilt shop, I can't afford to buy, and have to work with things on hand. |

| Comments: | Hi Bonnie.......I'm a new quilter and I found your web page to be most interesting. I just wanted you to know that your quilt designs have inspired me to want to keep quilting. I don't quilt like you do because I don't have a huge quilter like you do, but I've learned the 'Stitch in the Ditch' method and it has worked well for me.
thanx for the inspriation! Bonnie |

| Comments: | Mark Lipinski had your web site in his last magazine so I've been working my way through the webs and I found yours. After looking through most of the headings, I had a "AH-Ha" moment. My quilt room is so clogged with fabric that people have given me that I don't want and I want room to breath in there. Your scrap quilts, especially the "braided string quilt" is gonna free me up some space...Thank you X 10! Judi |

| Comments: | Thank you for all your free patterns for scrappy quilts. I am making a baby girl quilt at the moment. d-i-l is having her second baby the first week in October. I already have a boy quilt made, and last year in Sept. her little Bianka was born. She received the baby girl quilt. I enjoy machine embroidery as well and try to incorporate it in the quilts. I am embroidering sunbonnet babies on a cream flannel background and using a nine patch block alternately. Anyway thanks again for the free patterns. |

I was lokking for a page about Foldy Pinwheels, and this techingue. It is similar to prairie points but one block I recall made a 3D center square for an Ohio Star.

Today my friend and I began working on your Christmas in mystery in Quiltmaker magazine. We discovered your website through our guild, The Heart of ohio Quilters, and have loved reading our way through everything. We are both signed up for your Star Struck workshop and can't wait. Hopefully we will have the first two parts of the mystery done by the time you get here! (If the magazine comes out in a timely fashion, that is!) Looking forward to seeing you, Debby Warthen |

With a "collection" of my own over 35+ years plus my Mom's & Grandma's sewing things - well, you can imagine the job I have. The best part is I can still go back to visit my quilting friends up north, and I already have a wonderful group of new quilting friends where I am moving. Quilters are the best! |

I just want to thank you for the free patterns. I'm only quilting a few years, with real patterns.

I actually checked your book out of the local Eagle River library not too long ago. You are an inspiration! Thanks for the treasure trove of useful information and wonderful directions and photos. We love to exchange fabrics and will do so soon with one of your quilt patterns in mind.
Happy Quilting! CeeGee |
