Double Plus Bee Blocks

The Bees Knees are back in full swing again, and this month Nedra asked us to make some adorable Double Plus Blocks.    And my goodness, they were so fun and so fast.   And you know, I totally love those low volume backgrounds!! 

And like most bee blocks, I now totally want to make an entire quilt of these!!!  It would be a great way to burn through some scraps.  And truly, so much fun to make!!!   They are in the mail Nedra and I can't wait to see how your quilt comes together!!!

And speaking of quilts coming together, September was my month for the Bees Knees, and I asked my amazing bee mates to make blocks from my Moroccan Lullaby pattern, but this time, with low volume backgrounds!!!  I am just so loving the low volumes right now, and these prints a combination of fabrics from 3 different Corey Yoder lines, and it is so fun to see it coming together.  I can't wait for the last few blocks so I can get this all sewn up!!!

So how about you??  Have you sewn in a Bee???  And if so, are you like me and keep adding to the "to make someday" list each and every month :)

Dessert Sampler - Block 3!!

I have been working on quilting and binding a stack of quilt tops over the last few days, which is always so fun!!!  And since I still wanted to do a little piecing in all of that quilting time, I squeezed in a little Dessert Sampler block goodness and made block 3!!! And this block has purple!!!!   Love it!!!

And, thanks to the super fast cupcake papers,  I already have a good amount of piecing done on the 4th block!!  It should be pieced together soon :)  , It is just so fun to have  this project  that I can work on here and there ;)  I am so loving it!!! 

Although I have to admit, I keep getting tempted to sit down and cut out all the blocks so that I can sew them together assemble line and see all of this figgy goodness come together.   But I keep reminding myself that this is not that kind of project.  Well see if I can hold out to this one block at a time for the entire project ;)

3 New Charming Totes

So along with the quilt that was auctioned off for a church fundraiser that I shared back here, I decided to make a few new Charming Totes as well to help in the cause.  These are so much fun to make and are the perfect size tote for just about everything.  The only hard part was deciding on which Charm packs to use ;) 

The first tote I decided on a Flower Mill Charm Pack by Corey Yoder for Moda Fabrics.   I love these happy prints and beautiful colors and I opted for a little more free motion quilting on the totes this time around and did a lovely loose feather.  I love the little extra it adds to the tote ;)  I also decided to fold the lining over just slightly on the top to add a little "faux binding" on the top of the bag.  I like it, but it did make the handles a bit shorter as they had to be stitched down as well.  So if I did that again, I would add an inch to the handles ;)

For the second tote for auction, I used an Into the Garden Pack by Amanda Herring for Riley Blake Designs.   I have been saving this one for a bit, and it was just perfect for this little tote.   And I added some more flower whimsy with a feathered swirl free motion quilting design.   Both totes were a big hit at the auction and I have already seen them being toted along with the ladies who won them.  Which, of course,  just makes me smile ;)

And while I was in the tote making assembly line process, I decided that I needed a new tote for Church as well.  And I was so excited to find that Deanna Rutter's Heart and Soul Charm Pack for Riley Blake Designs had a text print that listed the Young Women values.  Since I work with the Young Women each week, it couldn't have been more perfect!!!

And this tote got a little extra love, since I was so needing these little extra features in my old tote.   Padded Handles, Pockets, and most importantly, key rings!!!!  No more digging around in the bottom of my bag to find where my keys have gone ;)   So loving it!!!

And if you find yourself needing a Charming Tote, you can find the tutorial to make your own right over here.   They really are so much fun to make, and trust me, you won't be able to make just one.   But I am telling you, the hardest part is just picking which Charm Pack to use ;)

Happy Quilting!!!
