I usually really like this autumnal month, but it just seems to have whizzed past me without me realising!
I had an interesting month bee-wise, being queen bee in 2 of them, and having a hst-fest in the other 2!
The left-hand blocks above are for Brit Bee and Modern Irish Bee respectively. On the right we have the wonky friendship braid I set for the cool Hipbees to make, and they didn't disappoint! (They are nearly all in & I can't wait to show you them!) Bottom right is the block I set for Sew Bee Happy, which will be donated to Bee Blessed, who are also making these crazy colour blocks this month.
And as if that wasn't enough bee blocks for one month, the ever-efficient Jan sent us her fabric last week for her month of October in Hipbees! Her theme was 'stars in Denyse Schmidt' so I made her this from the Modern Blocks book:
'Three Wishes' pg 186 |
Also, I already know what I'm to make from my stash for October in Sew Bee Happy - a Granny Squares block, set by Wendi.
But before the last few days of September slip completely through my fingers, I think I'll take a break from bee blocks until we're into October proper!
Wishing you all a fun-filled end to September 2012!
Gorgeous blocks jude :-)
ReplyDeleteOooh, get you all ahead of yourself! They look fab though :o)
ReplyDeleteWhat a lot of beautiful blocks.
ReplyDeleteThere I was thinking you were going to say you had done all your October blocks too! Phew but you still managed one totally gorgeous one for Jan! Love them all - huge soft spot for the churndash block!
ReplyDeleteOh man, I owe you some Bee Blessed, sorry xxx
ReplyDeleteGreat Bee Blocks - and there was you saying you'd done no sewing! Will you find a wee bit of time to make something for yourself now?
ReplyDeleteGorgeous blocks! Aren't bees fun? They open you up to so many new blocks and prints. Love 'em.
ReplyDeleteFabulous bee blocks, certainly looks like you have had a busy September!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful blocks!!
ReplyDeleteAll beautiful but I particularly like the three wishes.
ReplyDeleteBrilliant bee blocks. Brace yourself for the next round!
ReplyDeletebeautiful busy bee blocks! x
ReplyDeleteOh my the three wishes is so gorgeous! I wonder if you could use the technique to make a whole quilt? At least a baby-sized square. I'm always looking for the easy way ;)
