Bee Block Backlog

I've got a lot of bee blocks to catch up on. First up, I did two blocks for Susan in the Modern Stitching Bee.


If you like the block, Susan did an excellent tutorial for it here. The block goes together really easily and lets you feature fussy cuts from your favourite fabrics. I really enjoyed making these.


Right, two blocks down, eight to go. Eeek!

  3. Thank you for my beautiful blocks! The fussy cut centres are perfect- typewriter and paper clips & that sweet little girl reading! (I will call her Susan!) I think they are a fun block to make too!

  15. Hi - I always think your quilts look lovely and fresh with the white backgrounds. Can you tell me what shade is your go to white? Sometimes ordering on line it is hard to tell what white is best, and I don't want one that is too harsh/bright, if you know what I mean.
