Last month I waited until the day of the meeting to sew my bee block... I don't normally operate at the last minute, so I was worried how the block would turn out. These two blocks are for the Columbus Modern Quilt Guild's Bee - CbusMQBee. Janna let us pick whatever block we wanted for March - including colors. Talk about overwhelming... The decisions! I decided on this Blueberry Pie block, based on seeing Canoe Ridge Creation's Starburst Minis on Instagram. I love the way it came out! I need to stop avoiding purple. It can be such a lovely color when you choose the right shades and prints.
This month I am all over it - not wanting to leave it to the last minute again. I'm SO not good at procrastinating. This block is for Cynthia - she chose to have us make this Rolling Stone block with the centers all using Leah Duncan's Meadow print. Dreamy! This quilt will look fantastic once it's put together.
I am so glad to be back in a bee. It always forces me to make blocks I haven't tried before - and I love being able to explore without having to commit to a whole quilt.
And the last little project I will show today, is this cute little Plus Pillow. I made this along with the class I taught at Dabble & Stitch in March. Cheerful, right? I'm going to send it to my niece, who will love all the fantastically girly colors.
