End of Term!

My kids finished school last Friday!  Yippee!

My Spring/summer programme of classes finished last Friday! (pics of finishes to come)

Bee Blessed finished yesterday for the summer!  Here are 2 pics from the day:

Bee Blessed Quilt for Siblings Together June13

This is 1 of 2 quilts we are donating to Siblings Together next month.  Based on the Funky Wrench block here, we have put together most of the donated blocks we received to make this wonderful quilt.  Isn't it a beauty!

And the Starflower quilt top is now finished:

Bee Blessed Starflower quilt top

Love how this one is shaping up!

And just because I don't have enough quilts of my own waiting to be quilted (?????), I thought I'd make another one!

D9P Quillow 001 (2)

This is a class sample for an Autumn Quillow class, based on the Disappearing 9 Patch block.  My original sample from previous classes is based on a scrappy block with sashing . ...


... but I wanted to offer folks a non-sashed, design alternative.  I will be updating the Quillow pattern in my Etsy shop soon with this additional design option.

So that brings my stockpile of quilts needing quilted up to 7 (with another one waiting in the wings!).

What am I like!!!

  3. The quilts to be donated are wonderful! I love all those random colours and fabrics. Your own are also beautiful. Can't see yet much of the new one, though. Me too, I am more a patchworker than a quilter! I have to find someone here who could do the quilting for me!

  6. 7 quilts - ugh I feel ill at the thought of all that quilting - wavy lines anyone? ;-)

    Funky wrench has to be one of my favourite quilts we've made at Bee Blessed - hope it really blesses one of the ST crew.
