... and it's really pretty ... and signed ...

I pre-ordered mine about six weeks ago so I am excited for it to arrive!

Look at you two lucky ladies!! I'm just sure
that this book is just as awesome as her other
books!! What's first on your "To make" list??

Hi B/B decided just last night that I want to start on PINEAPPLE CRAZY .. only not so big as hers. I have a list of 15 WIPs I need to add that to ... LOL

Checked Bonnie's site and was looking over her pictures from the new book. Really like the way she used strings as background fabrics. She do have a way with scraps, don't she?

Bonnie, anything that will use my nickels, diet noodles, bricks or 2 1/2" squares, lol!

I'm sure once I get the book, the FIRST quilt will jump out at me!

I'm so jealous!! Maybe I can get it one day. I do have her other two books and love looking at them!

Pssssst... I am going to see her in September at a workshop in Lexington. She always brings books to her workshops, (or so I read on her blog). So I am thinking of waiting and getting her to hand it to me personally!
Can not wait!

...Good for you getting to see her ... i SAW her at Road to California - I stress SAW .. didn't get to even say anything but Hi ... and that was in passing she is really a neat person - you will enjoy your event ..

Rondiquilts you will see enjoy her trunk show when you see her in September. I got to see her when I lived in Texas. That was the ONLY reason I joined the guild b/c I knew she would be coming that year. So glad I did. She signed my books for me there and I didn't have to pay shopping.

Lexington is pretty close to me, I'm on the other side of the river in IN from Louisville but since I have no grandparents in town that means no babysitters to keep my kids for me to go I doubt I could talk dh into using a vacation day for keeping kids while I go

Rhondiquilts- Bonnie is a bundle of fun. I took a short 3 hr class at the Vermont Quilt Festival 7/1 and had a great time. She did bring books to sign. Remember to double check your 1/4" seam before you go to be sure your pieces turn out well. Bonnie spent the first 15 minutes having people check their seam allowance and sells a $3 gadget to help folks check alignment. I use a generic $4 snap on foot from JoAnns and was spot on. Be prepared, have your fabrics ready, and Enjoy. Don't forget your camera!

My book arrived today and I think it's my favorite. Once the dust settles from all the other projects I have to do, I'll decide which pattern to make first.

My book arrive last night. Ohhhh I can't wait to dig in thos strings my daughter separated into color families.

Meeting today to help with the local fair, but tonight I will be sewing!

Rondi, you'll enjoy every minute spent with Bonnie. I had 2 super days of classes with her, trunk show & talk at guild, and visited when I picked her up at the hotel. There will be books that she'll sign and lots of info shared. A must if anyone gets the opportunity!
