More Beejeeber's Blocks!!!

I can't tell you how fun it is to check the mail and have squishy packages.  I get all smiley before I even open them up :)  And then I open them and just get per-ma grin!!!  It's my month for the Beejeeber's Bee and my fabulous bee gal's are making me blocks from my Star Value tutorial :)  Here are the newest blocks that came in this last week :)  I really have some of the best bee mates!!!





Sorry, somehow I missed ironing this one :)


And, of course, I couldn't help but lay them out to see it all coming together.  To say I a excited about this quilt would be a massive understatement.  Only 3 blocks to arrive and then I get to start stitching it up.  Yippee Skippee!!! 

And in other Bee news . . . I was invited to join another bee group, The Bees Knees.  Like my current bee, these are some amazingly talented quilters.  I already know some of the ladies and am looking forward to getting to know the others :)  So exciting, I just can't wait to get started :)

  2. I am a process quilter - the process of these blocks, and the finished look is so scrappy and wonderful. What a great group pattern. Gotta show this to my Bee.

  11. My 86 year old mom comes over (almost) every weekend and we quilt together. She saw me making this block for my project in the easiest sew along and was so thrilled by it that she has now made 7 blocks on her own. It's turning out great and it's so fun to see her so thrilled with a new pattern (she used to be pretty set it her quilting ways). I'll be sure to get some pics the next time she's over and add to your flickr page. Thanks again for this awesome pattern and for getting my mom so enthused. Your quilt is looking fantastic. And thanks for the heads up on how to get involved with bees.

  15. I never thought I would say a scrap quilt was gorgeous, because they just aren't my thing. But I'm saying it now....it's gorgeous!! :)
