Our latest Mystery!
Old
Tobacco Road!
~A Quiltville Mystery
Quilt!!~
©
Bonnie K Hunter.
When I
moved to
Wallburg NC in February 2008, I
never knew how fun it was going to be to watch things growing in fields
all around me, and how it would connect me to the history of this land.
Granted, I wish they would grow anything BUT Tobacco, but since I had
never seen it done before, it has been interesting.
I
love the old tobacco drying barns
that I see everywhere. In NC it
seems that old buildings are never taken down, they just stay there
until they fall. I would love to do a whole picture portfolio on old
farm houses and tumbling down barns. I just love them! The
inspiration
for the name of the quilt came from the September 2008 issue of North
Carolina's "Our State" magazine. It's a beautiful magazine with
great
photography and really interesting articles on the history of tobacco
farming. It became the jumping off point for my designing process in
this mystery.

**Special Note!!**
You
are welcome to make quilts from these patterns for yourself, your
family, friends, guild fundraisers and raffles, and most of all,
charities! You may make quilts from these patterns to sell for a profit
(No mass production though) or to teach
a class*.
But
please, no
photocopying, or reproducing and packaging and marketing the pattern instructions with the intent to
make a profit by selling them.
Just
because they are free here for your use, doesn't make it legal to use
them in that way.
When in doubt, email me and ask. Be kind and keep
the creative spirit of quilting alive and give credit where credit is
due.
*If
you are teaching any of these
designs as a class, In lieu of having to purchase a pattern, I would
love for each of your students to make me a block of whatever quilt you
are teaching to be used in charity quilts! They may also include a 4.5"
signature square to be included in the back of the quilts. Together we
can make a difference!
If
you are
hosting a swap of blocks from Quiltville, would everyone consider
making one extra block and sending them to me with a siggie square? I'd
love to know who you are!
(That
goes for
any of you who find this site valuable as a quilter! Feel free to
make an extra block of whatever you are making! I'll be sure they are
made into quilts and given to those in need, No time to make a block?
An FQ will do! :c)
This
is just a
suggestion, not mandatory!)
Most of all...HAVE FUN and enjoy the Quilting Journey!
Questions
or Comments? I would love to hear from you!!
