I recently made a quilt from shirts of a deceased family friend and gave the quilt to his wife. I was amazed at how wonderful the quilt was finished when it started with so many different fabrics and colours. Brenda |

| Comments: | What a wonderful site! I have spent hours and hours poking around the web looking for quilting info and ideas, finding bits and pieces here and there, but never anything as comprehensive and welcoming as your site. I was happy when I blundered into a picture of one of your scrappy star patterns, and then just kept looking at all the other great stuff you offer. Thanks a lot; I know I'll be coming back often. Right now I have to go piece a quilt. |

| Comments: | I happened upon your site this morning and have fallen in LOVE! I am a hand quilter, it actually the only way I know how to quilt, and have been looking for new ideas. My grandmother and her seven sister taught me how to quilt when I was three, I'm 29 now. I have taken over (or should I say been taken over?) with the amazing art form. I now teach my nieces the same way I was taught. Amazing to see a five and four year old's little eyes light up! Thank you for sharing all these wonderful ideas and patterns in which I am able to show the next generation. Happy Quilting! |

Just found your website, when do you find time to sleep??? You are one busy lady!! I want to thank you for some really nice scrap patterns,I have a very large garbage bag full, I gave away the first 2 bags, but especially for the Mountains Majesties, I had seen it in magazines before but when I read the directions they were so complicated that I knew I would never make it, but then I found yours, so easy, and I actually just finished the quilt top today, it came out lovely. Turquoise were the main colors I used with a little bit of purple/lavender. This is definately one I will make again. Thanks again for a great website. Sue |

| Comments: | Hi bonnie;
Have been looking at your page for about a year now. Love that you are into using what ever is on hand. I tell a lot of the newer quilters I meet that Grandma didn't have everything that we have. Mine, in particular didn't even follow a pattern--she just sewed and flipped till she got to the size that she wanted then sort of squared up--put an old flannel blanket inside and tied. She made some really pretty quilts. I also like to recycle for quilts, save older fabric for repairing the old loved quilts and do machine quilting for other, so do not get a lot of time to do my own quilts. Took a class on the Lone Star 4 years ago so I would get that one done-- used some material that was to be dear husbands shirt--still isn't quilted. Told him that that would be the only way that he would get to see the shirt material. lol Have saved 3 of your mystery quilts to do .......??? Anyway, wanted to give you lots of luck with the publishing of books and articles. Wish I was as talented. Shirley Marvin |

| Comments: | I enjoyed the interview with Pat Sloan. It helped me answer a question I had about how to class my prints. I couldn't decide to class them by background or print color. Now all I have to do is decide how the "read" Now all I have to do is decide what to do with ones that have large prints with really diffrent colors.
I have a lot to learn but thanks to your web site. I have a good reference site. |

I sure enjoyed your class and trunk show here in Casper. I plan to do more organizing of fabric. One does need to stay home in order to get something done. We have a snow storm coming in Friday and Sat. Maybe that is my opportunity. Worked on 11 DFS bags for children who are taken from homes or come from abuse situations. tonight after I serged the tops. Then appliqued animals and circus things on them using a blanket stitch. Take Care, Shirley |

| Comments: | Hi Bonnie: I found your site several years ago and spent almost the whole day first time browsing. Have visited many times since, sometimes for hours at a time. For many years I buy bed skirts from thrift stores, wash and cut apart.Prices VERY reasonable. Drops are saved for projects and foundations are used for strip piecing foundations or practice stuff. I attend some workshops through our quiters association and after every one come home and drop stuff--I think you know what I mean--to be completed...whenever!. Yeah right! My scraps are gradually getting organized into plastic bags even before I read your info, but I am leary of cutting all into 2.5",3",5" and other sizes because I never know if the fabric will be needed/wanted in a larger/dimension-yes I know I could sew them tog.but still.Am trying to get over that bump in the road.. I'm looking forward to your workshop- I signed up already first day it was offered- in 2011 at New Mexico Quilters Association. All for now, LOVE your site. Nancy |

| Comments: | I am new at quilting, I like the traditional quilts.I made a baby quilt for a friend's new born grand daughter. She was thrilled and gave me a bag of retro fabrics she found at an estate sale. The form owner started something looks like a tiny quilt, with man cut up pieces.A few small blocks was all she did. The blocks indicated that she was a excellent sewer,( I am not.) Her work inspired me to finish whatever she intended to do. I cruise the internet to find some inspiration. I am so fortunate to hit your website, and need not look for second website. I will visit your site again.

One of these quilts was hand sewn top & needs to be hand quilted. I have the quilt frame & am just looking for guidence about stitching by hand. I think I'm most concerned about having uniform size stiches. Perhaps you have a guide book to direct me to? |

| Comments: | Dear Bonnie,
Wow, I've been reading for a whole day and still haven't seen all your quilts! I really liked how you explained getting an exact quarter inch seam allowance. A little smidgen makes a big difference in many blocks. Your site is amazing to read and see all your work in helping others in so many ways. I just talked to a friend, Sally, yesterday who's been in the nursing home for the past 3-4 months. She's diabetic and they wanted to cut off her leg, but after being on the kidney machine, she's lost 22 pounds of water and still has her leg! The women of a church nearby, made her a quilt and told her every knot in her quilt is prayer. Her recovery is remarkable! The warmth of many hearts is covering many with quilts in very touching ways and are so appreciated. A group in Texas was making Memorial quilts for the families of those in the Ft. Hood shootings and quilters from all over donate blocks in the ongoing efforts for our veteran families, wounded warriors and special needs. Our thanks to all. Blessings, -Rose, Washington State, USA |

| Comments: | Hi Bonney,
I love the idea if the christmas mystery quilt. A great idea I have for the back is to use a solid colour then have all the family and friends who visit for christmas sign and date the back in permanant marker. This way over the years you have a memory of who has visited for christmas. Merry Christmas and happy quilting. Nicole Beauchamp NSW Australia |

| Comments: | I wanted to tell you I admire your work. I enjoy making scrap quilts also. For the past 2 months I have combed the Thrift Stores in Northeast Fl. It is amazing how much one can cut out from as XL or larger size, 100% cotton, mens shirts. I find some of my greatest finds at the thrift stores. Happy quilting and hope you had a great Thanksgiving. We did. Tomorrow Floridians are going to wake up to weather that is 38. |

| Comments: | I"m new to quilting, as of July 2009 .I'm a full time private practice family physician. I've never had a hobby that relaxes me more. On Sundays, my husband watches sports, I sew. This all started when one day my stepmother asked me to make her a quilt. I had never made a quilt before, nor had I sewed in over 35 years. She wanted one for xmas. I remarked, not THIS xmas. She pouted and stated she will probably be dead before she gets a quilt. I joked that I could make her a much smaller quilt for her casket. I just completed her bedsize quilt (madme THIS time with precut block of the month kits) in time to give her for xmas and I ended up made a friend in the person I found to hire to do the "quilting". She lead me to your site. I love it. My next project: Old tobacco road". I'm not seasoned enough to have scraps but I am getting a lot of fat quarters. I"m so excited to try it.! Thanks Bonnie.

| Comments: | I had not heard of you or your site before. But today I was told by 2 different people that I need to visit your site. WOW! A kindred spirit re scraps. This will not be my last trip to your site. I've never done a mystery quilt, but Will be seeing you after turkey day. I have recently begun to do projects to reduce my stash. ( of course I am still adding to the stash with other projects.) Several yrs ago I recieved wonderful flannel scraps from a friend in Canada. They were from cuttings for pajamas. I cut them into squares and made 5 large quilts from them and just passed on the remainders to another friend. I've recently discovered string quilting and again used up stash. I look forward to learning the tips you so graciously share. |

| Comments: | Hi Bonnie, I can't say enough about how happy I was to meet you at the retreat at Hawks Nest, Wv. I probably cut everything I had into 2 1/2 inchs, and had a ball doing so. That was my first retreat and you made it a perfect first one. I know my quilting lacks perfection, but I love to try. I can't wait to do a plaid shirt quilt because I have one of each of my grandsons shirts to add to it. Well, I could type all day about the retreat and how happy I was there, but I won't. Thanks so much for being who you are and doing what you do. I'll always remember this retreat. Hope to see you again. |

Like I said, you changed my thoughs entirely about scraps. Plus your advice on how to manage scrapy pieces will make it much easier to USE "left overs". They now have a purpose instead of a big mess. Hope to see you again in 2012. Take care & Happy Quilting! |

| 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 |
