This is what I've been up to lately. Just a few bee blocks!
The first two are for Amber, for the Busy Bees Bee. She sent us the fabric and gave us free reign to create what we wanted. I LOVE that! And as you can tell, I like to get a leeeeetle bit crazy....
And these last 6 blocks are for the members of my "hive" in the 3X6 bee that Tiff masterminded. I really love this bee! The members choose three colors, and then the other members of the hive make a block for each member in the colors they chose. The maker, however, gets to choose the design. LOve it!
And for those of you who missed out on the quilt as you go quilt along earlier this year, Heather and I are starting a QAYG round 2, which will kick off on Wednesday, September 8. So get your scraps together, and lets go!
Oh golly your hope block is glorious - love them all but that one the best!

I have started my second quilt as you go quilt but this time I used the Roundabout tutorial. I get great circle quilting using this technique.

The fabrics in the hexies are a kick! Who knew you had so many little quirky things - blenders,and robots, and wieniemobiles - O My! Remember the Oscar Mayer hotdog mobile? Do they still have that? Sharin the joy!
