August Bee Blocks

This month of the bee for do good stitches, Sheila is on deck. She has chosen an HRT block and a rainbow color way for us to make up.  If you have never made an HRT before, Sheila found a great tutorial here.

Not sure how many low volume fabrics I have on hand as I am traveling and seem to have fabrics spread between British Columbia and Ontario, but I will do my best. I was able to pull some pinks that will work but had a bit of difficulty in doing the rainbow thing as requested.  Perhaps the store in Ottawa will be open when I fly in?

My Bee Blocks

I finally had an opportunity to lay out my bee blocks on the design wall.  They look pretty good.  Sadly I will need to make some more as there is just not enough to make a large enough quilt. Good thing when I made the initial sample block, I cut out some extra pieces to make another few blocks.

The colors are very lovely in this quilt with the blues, purples, pinks, sand and grey throughout.  Now on to make some more. Since these are from August I guess I better get with it and get the show on the road.
