Bonnie's pattern finishes at 82" x 82". I think I'm going to go about three rows bigger. You can find the pattern for this quilt in her latest book, Addicted to Scraps.
It's a gorgeous breezy, 79 degree morning here in Ohio!
I started putting plus blocks together. I wasn't sure I liked this process or not.
My quilty bff made a plus quilt from the same block pattern. I love her layout. Mine will be something more like this. Thanks, Jules, for the great idea! I have tons if neutrals and 1.5" blocks already cut because of my scrap users' system that I learned in Bonnie Hunter's class. Someday I'll have to make an Idaho Square Dance quilt from all these little pieces in my tray. They make great leaders/enders. Check out Julianne's Idaho Scrap Dance quilt here. She always refers to us as sisters from another mister.
Linking up with all the fun at Angela's blog, SoScrappy. This week's linky party is here. Come join in on all of the fun and see all the scrappy inspiration from the others!

Love how your garden party quilt is coming together
What a beautiful half a quilt. You are so diligent to add the blocks as they are done. Instant accomplishment!
I love your Garden Party. she is so pretty. I always have to make my quilts larger too. I am glad to hear of someone else who does that too.
I just love this; so cheerful and bright and she's looking happy blowing in the breeze! :)
Oh, what a great quilt! I do have that book and was able to get into 2 of Bonnie's classes in October an hour and a half away in Rochester, NY. I just love your scrappy choices. It always amazes me that unrelated scraps can come together and sing as a whole.
Garden Party is such a great pattern. Love the way your quilt is coming together and yes, I see the yellow!
Very good progress on the Garden Party. I bought that book from Bonnie and I will get my own Garden Party ... one day. ;^)

Wow that's a gorgeous quilt!
Isn't it amazing how all those little bits of different colours come together so wonderfully? Definitely what I love about quilting.
Love how that is coming along.
Your Garden Party seems like a great scrap buster. Love all the color - it looks like a party!
It looks great to me! What a wonderful way to use up scraps.
