Here’s an update on ScrapBeeLicious. I have already had so much fun with these ladies, and I feel so blessed to have my blocks. (Yes, I know I need to finish that quilt. I’ve decided to make it a HUGE quilt, so I have 6 more blocks to make. I don’t know what’s holding me up … yes, I do. ADD) I’ve found that with bees I am a huge procrastinator. I put a lot of pressure on myself to please the recipient because I respect and like all of them so much. I want them to love what I make. This past month Cath over at Wombat Quilts had up paper piece two low-volume blocks. Paper piecing was the easy part – low volume was a new concept. I don’t speak low volume. I changed my mind about twenty times, but in the end I loved the blocks I made. I can’t wait to see the finished quilt – it’s going to be stunning.
Of course I had to cut into some Chicopee for such a special friend. I truly can’t wait to see all of these finished quilts. And, I promise that I’m starting the next blocks this weekend, Alyce! With my quilt guild I just started a new bee, and our first block has a Y-seam. About that… first time for everything, right?!
Happy quilting this weekend, friends. I have an unobtainable wish list to accomplish this weekend – here’s to hoping I get it done!
Wasn't Quilt in a Day 
Those are lovely blocks!! Plan A for the weekend was a trip to see my brother and hit up IKEA (first weekend away from the kids!), but it has been postponed due to weather. Plan B is paint the new wall and kitchen. So today is cleaning day…and quilting whenever possible.
Love your blocks.
I love these blocks. I can not wait to get the blocks up on my design wall and play. I LOVE the Chicopee in particular. LOVE.
Love your blocks! Good luck with your y-seam challenge :). That’s the best part of bees and swaps for me is trying new things
I love, love that second block! It is so you, and looks like quilty sunshine. Sew sew sew!
Which y-seam block is it? I have promised myself I will learn y-seams, partial seams, and master curved seams next year…
they are both just fabulous – we must have the same awesome taste in fabric as I see a few of my favourite prints in there!!!
I LOVE the second block! The center print is one of my favorites, and I am coveting the graph paper.
Beautiful blocks! Very different but both great, I love the fabrics on the top one…so pretty 🙂
Just as long as you get my blocks done, then I think you can call your weekend a success 😉
