Guess what time it is?!
I awoke to rain falling heavily on the cabin’s tin roof overhead – “Can’t I just snuggle in a while longer?” I asked my sleepy self – and then I remembered!
We have a Quilty Box and Quilty Box Mini to gift away, and this post needs to go up fairly early this morning as I have invited company coming to meet me at Quiltville Inn. In the rain. In the dreary cold, dismal – no wait – change that. In the warm and cozy surroundings inside the inn, now that we got the gas fireplaces in the Quilting Quarters working and warming the space!
So let’s get on with this – because this month’s Quilty Box includes a fat quarter pack of fabric that has me over the moon – and stars!
What is a Quilty Box?
Here are some highlights to keep in mind:
Here are some highlights to keep in mind:
- Quilty Box is a monthly subscription box of fun quilting supplies. We offer plans from $44-48/mo.
- 5% of the profits of multi-month subscriptions are donated to Quilts for Kids - a non-profit which donates quilts for children in need
- Each month we have 4 or more products (fabric, patterns, thread, or notions)
- Our retail value of the products in the box is always more than $60
- We will be using the hashtags #QuiltyBox and #GetQuilty

“Wonder” fat quarter bundle!

Good luck, everyone!
Other things to keep in mind about this date – Can anyone guess what Halloween is also for??
Be watching this blog for the release of our Quiltville Winter Mystery 2018 introductory post! I will be presenting the name, theme, inspiration, colors and yardage requirements right here. You won’t want to miss it. Let Mystery Season begin!
Heading over to the inn to start up these fire places!
Next thing on the “must find” list are two mesh screens to cover the openings so that wild quilters won’t be throwing scraps (or blocks requiring un-sewing) anywhere near an open flame!
Quiltville Quote of the Day!
(Don’t you love that sashing fabric? LOL!)
Basket quilt found in Salem, VA.
Just blossom at your own pace, in your own space.
Much love to you on this rainy Friday -

Hi Bonnie - I'm looking forward to Halloween for another reason - getting a new hip on that very day! I'll be spending my recovery time dreaming and planning after sending my husband out to pick up the paint chips for inspiration. By the time you release the first clue, I'll be good to sew! Thanks for all that you do for the rest of us!
yes! SEW looking forward to the first step of the next mystery! Loving the fall weather out here, xo Love all you contribute to us, Cats from Carlsbad, CA
The fireplace looks so cosy , perfect on a rainy day . Looking forward to Halloween 😊
I love reading about all your classes & the exciting things happening at Quiltville! Love your quilts too!
Winter, Spring, Summer and Bonnie Hunter Mystery Season :0) Counting down the days ! Thanks so much Bonnie
wow...awesome quilty box giveaway! oh those little houses...
I have one in my basement famiky room. It is so cozy and warm
Feeling like I need a fireplace this chilly morning in Northern Utah. Someday I will make it back east and live the dream of a big old place in the woods on some acreage. Till then I will sit back and stitch a few other mysteries while waiting for the mother of all mysteries to start next week! Woo Hoo!
Anticipating your next Mystery Quilt. Entered my Grand Illution Quilt" in the SC State Fair and proud to say I won a Blue ribbon. Thanks for your amazing instrutions and my niece Christy's longarm quilting. It was my first scrapy quilt and now I'm hooked.
Our gas fireplace in the living/dining is the main heat source. A flip of the switch on damp mornings gives instant heat. The sun provides warmth for the rest of the day almost year-round. Great when there's a power outage! I'm sure Quiltville Inn will become a destination place on many Bucket Lists!
Do I have to have a URL, or pay a fee to be eligible for the Quilty Boxes?

Dear Bonnie,
It will warm your heart to know that there were 8 Bonnie Hunter-inspired quilts among the 125+ quilts on display at Brandywine Valley Quilters’ quilt show this past weekend in Brookhaven, PA! 2 Allietare, one En Provence, one Roll, Roll, Cotton Boll, two On Ringo Lake and two (finally completed UFOs!!) Scrappy Bargello from the workshop you presented when you visited BVQ in October, 2012! Thank you for inspiring us to make wonderful scrappy quilts! Sending hugs from Wilmington, Delaware...-Lil Koster
I am so looking forward to the Mystery quilt! This will be my 5th year participating! Several of my close friends are now participating! Excitement is in the air!
Thank you for another opportunity to win a quilting goody. I see I should x some ads. Did not know that. I usually just glance and move on.
Bonnie, I know you’re coming to WV to teach. I have an antique quilt holder I want to give you for your inn. Do you think you will have room in your car for it?
Hi Bonnie, wish you could come to Australia and teach!
This blog was full of good news. Finally, I have a reason to look forward to Halloween! I am just finishing up Ringo Lake from last year so I will be ready! Thank you Bonnie for your love and generosity.
I hope I win, I hope I win... : ) Thank you as always for your wonderful blog!
Oops, I will follow the instructions now for entering the Quilty Box giveaway! I got a little ahead of myself! LOL
Love the quilt from Salem. Why can't I put such disparate colors together and have it look so gorgeous!
