A Bee-rilliant Afternoon!

Another gathering of Bee Blessed happened today!  

We had enough blocks donated in time to make up this beauty:


We also beavered away on more D9P blocks from our scraps box (there are lots more incomplete ones too!):

Sorry about the rubbish pics!
And we are making a special quilt for a friend's husband who is seriously ill at the moment.  Instead of using white in the D9P we are using trusty Kona Ash:


We were also quilting & finishing off some of the cot quilts from last month & I'll bring you pics of those when they're all done.

And no Bee Blessed day would be complete without tea, homemade scones, brownies and lots of chat!



Some of the workforce!
So a very productive and enjoyable afternoon was had by all!

We will continue to work on D9P blocks for the next few weeks, and I can't wait to see the promised blocks  I know are still to come from several different parts of the world!  

A huge thank you to everyone for being involved!

  9. The D9P quilt top looks great!! And so do the additional blocks you showed. Must have been fun to get together and quilt (and for a good cause!). I'll be sending my blocks out early next week.
