It's called the Brit Bee and came out of a new Flickr group called Brit Quilt, which seeks to connect quilters in the UK.
There are 12 of us, and as each member has an allocated month to send out material and instructions for the other members to make their block, I've affectionately called us the Calendar Girls!

Aren't we a great bunch?
Not all of the gals have blogs, but do have fab flickr pages. Click on the links to view some amazing pics and blogs.
We will be blogging each month about what we've made, as soon as all blocks are posted back to the recipient.
Watch this space!
Oh to be Brit ... LOL Have fun!!
ReplyDeletetalk about ROFLMAO! I told you I need bigger buns! Now I'm all Giddy! Lots of love - Ms May!
ReplyDeleteI need to find a copy of that WI calendar and find out what Ms Sept hid behind. Really hoping it isn't two cherry buns!
ReplyDeleteQuilting Calendar Girls should really be posing with quilting accessories - you know, a strategically placed sewing machine, cutting board, rotary cutter, fabric stash pile. Just pity the Miss whose month is the transparent 6"x 24" ruler! Have fun ladies!
ReplyDeleteSuch a talented group, I can't wait to see what you create!
ReplyDeleteCute post!
ReplyDeleteIf were doing a quilt inspired calendar, I got dibs on posing with 6 yards of fluffy batting. Since it's your idea Judith I nominate you for the 6x24" ruler :-) I have 2 dinky 5" squares you can have too... just for modesty!!
Hilarious post! sounds like you are going to have lots of fun. :)
