A quick update for quilting bee blocks… One Block Over April – Andie’s Maverick Star block: May – Amy’s Japanese + and X block (this was super easy to make, Amy already had the pieces cut out for us – I wish she would have sent fabric for 2 blocks!): And finally, Victoria, [...] Ok, I’m done with the discussion for now. I was quite a bit refreshed that there was actually an emotion related to a quilting/craft blog that wasn’t 100% ooey-gooey sunshiney goodness. I’m not entirely sure what everyone is afraid of, but it IS ok to have a differing opinion. For me, that’s the beauty [...] I keep seeing other peoples’ posts, so I thought I’d throw my hat in as well… Since I’ve participated in a total of 7 bees since February 2008, I had a few quilt blocks to choose from… My most favorite traditional block has been the Dutch Rose: As I’ve eluded to recently, I [...] …get waylaid by a random bout of gastroenteritis.

He got me the fat cats ruler. Then I was asked to make a Dresden block for the Facebook [...] All the crafty bloggers are doing their year in review blog posts…and I’m jealous I can’t create this wonderful mosaic of a bunch of projects I completed this past year, because I didn’t get a lot done! However, I made a lot of quilting bee blocks this year. Above are the blocks I [...] And I only posted one real post in November?? What’s wrong with me? Busy, I guess… I do have a couple of things to catch you up on, but I need the photos on my computer @ home… What else? Hmm… When the opportunity arose, I jumped at the chance to join the One [...] I think I missed the Spring 2010 Bloggers’ Quilt Festival because I didn’t have anything new to show… but not this time around! A couple of weekends ago, I finished up this smallish quilt using some of my 3×6 bee blocks from Q1: I had asked my 3×6 bee buddies for blocks in [...] Jessica requested wonky stars for her PTQB block, using the awesome Prints Charming Rainbow Garden fabrics.
