Sew Sisters

The last of 2015 bee blocks were made literally the last days of 2015.  What can I say?  "I won't be late in 2016!" ?

Shelly asked for a scrappy version of 13 Spools improv herringbone block

Stephanie wanted flying geese blocks to add to her Gorgeous Gertie MCM Bee blocks.

These two blocks were made while on Christmas break in Montana.  Note to self: next time bring more fabrics and take a picture of finished blocks.  I thought I had planned my block making supplies sufficiently, but I only had enough of the appropriate fabrics to make Stephanie eight flying geese, and there were more duplications in Shelly's block that I wanted, but hey they are finished!

Thanks for stopping by.  I hope your 2016 is off to a great start!

  4. Hi Rene,
    Oh! I like those blocks! The border/herringbone are very interesting. :)

  5. That herringbone block eats a lot of fabric; your block is gor-ge-ous! Aren't there quilt shops in MT for when you run out of fabric????

  6. Your blocks are so fun! I'd drive myself crazy trying to figure out what to bring to sew for an extended period of time, so any sewing getting done is wonderful in my book!

  7. I love the blocks you've made. Learning from our SewDays, I'd much rather have too little than "more than I can use."
    I can't wait to see if you finish things earlier in 2016! Good luck with that.
