Bonnie Hunter Mystery Reveal happened on Friday.

Last week with all the cold and icy weather, time spent indoors got the mystery clues all caught up for the next one which happened on Friday morning. As sometimes happens, there may be a called for ruler? Looked at it and decided not to get this ruler.

Printed out the paper piecing version first. Read the instructions for cutting the rectangles and sewing them as if one had the called for ruler. Then decided to sew them like this first. Early one morning, a light bulb went off reminding me of another ruler in my sewing room. Quilt in a day flying geese ruler.

So true to making due with what we have, I repurposed it for the mystery and it worked.The crazy part, it was the exact size for the required pieces.

Next was the cat ears, so those got made. the leftover corner bits was also sewn into triangle squares and turned into pinwheels. (This is not part of the pattern, just something for me).

These trimmed bits very many times ends up in the trash, making pinwheels just made more sense to me.

Once the reveal happened, parts got sorted into units for the bigger blocks. With this one, the bottom of some of the scraps got scraped clean. I actually had to buy extra fabric to be able to continue to finish some blocks. (Also decided this is one of the best Bonnie Hunter mystery quilts ever. Have many blocks in multiple colours waiting in boxes waiting to be used one day. Those will be turned into leaders and enders for another one in a very scrappy rainbow version of this one.)

This one was made with mainly larger leftover fabrics from two kingsize quilts, so much more controlled and matching for a better word to describe it.

The quilt compromise of two sets of larger blocks, to create the main part of the quilt. It has a flying geese border, with four cornerstone blocks to frame the center of the quilt.

Time will be spent over the next while to sew the elements together and assemble the quilt top.
