Good news about shipping costs from Quilter’s Village: We listened to your concerns. Shipping costs have been reduced, plus we can now ship to international customers! We’re still “rearranging the furniture” on the new ShopQuiltersVillage website, but it is ready to take your orders securely!

Let me tell you a little bit about Bonnie. She’s a prolific quilter, a lot of fun and she makes great scrap quilts. She has a workable system for using her scraps (Scrap User’s System in Jan/Feb ‘09) and for making one quilt while she’s working on another (Leaders and Enders in Jan/Feb ‘08). If you ever have the chance to hear Bonnie speak, go! When I heard her speak, I sat there thinking “I can do this–I should do this–It’d be so simple to set up a system like hers.” She’s inspiring.

I’m so glad that we’ve been able to introduce Bonnie to QM readers and, in our July/Aug ‘09 issue we’re starting a mystery quilt designed exclusively for us. It’s called Christmas Lights and part 1 is now available in the magazine.

Special Offer: If you’ve missed any of the previous Quiltmaker issues that feature Bonnie’s articles and patterns, we’ve got a Bonnie Hunter Special on sale now. You get 4 issues that feature Bonnie’s articles and patterns, including July/August ‘09 to start the Mystery series all for $10.99.

Book Review + Giveaway: Bonnie is also the author of a book called Scraps & Shirttails: Reuse, Re-Purpose, Recycle! The Art of Quilting Green, published by Kansas City Star Books. This book is filled with Bonnie’s ideas to recycle everything from stash fabric to thrift store finds. Bonnie will help you tame your scraps and turn them into quilts, and the book has 12 fun patterns as well. Leave a comment mentioning your favorite quilt-related blog  by 12 noon Mountain time on Friday, June 19 and I’ll select 5 different people to win a copy of Bonnie’s book!

Here are the tables piled high after I showed all the quilts.

Two women brought Quiltmaker projects that they’ve been working on: Sandy just needs to finish her binding on America the Beautiful.

Kathy (in the middle) is doing the handwork on Home & Harvest, and even has dyed some of the wool herself. (This is a 6-part series pattern that ran in all 6 of Quiltmaker’s 2005 issues.)

Special offer: I just made arrangements to sell all six issues that contain Home & Harvest at a special price. Buy the Home & Harvest Bundle for only $12.95.

It’s always fun to see what people make out of our patterns. If you’ve made a Quiltmaker pattern, be sure to send us a photo. We’ll be creating a new submission system soon, but in the meantime, follow these submission guidelines. Happy quilting!
