quilting bees

blocks ready to be mailed
Here's a few blocks that I've made as part of the Common Threads and Bee Beautiful Quilting Bees. Joining a quilting bee is such a fun way to learn new techniques and try out new ideas on a small scale!

    Beautiful quilt blocks! String blocks are fun and so quick to put together. I especially love the fabrics you chose for the Modern/right angle blocks.

    It is so much fun to see the variety of blocks that bees provide. The fabric in the modern block is fantastic.

    Busy girl! I love your cross blocks. I've been seeing a lot of crosses lately, it makes me want to make another cross quilt!

    Love the fabrics in Nadia's blocks, and the cross's are cool. I am so glad I joined the quilting bee, I had no idea how fun it would be. Plus I am learning SO much.

    I love all of your blocks! Bees are great for learning and trying new things, aren't they! Next up on my docket is a string quilt (I think!!)

    Oooh. They're all so pretty. I especially love the red crosses. I think I need to make a crosses quilt. I just really like every one I see.
    Also, I keep forgetting to tell you that I give you permission to forge my signature on the blocks I made for you. Probably easier that way.

    Wow love those blocks. I especially like the book quilt block. Is there a pattern for this block as would love to make a whole quilt in this style. Any help would be great.
