March

Hello Ladies,

I have the privilege of taking my turn next month and I wanted to ask if everyone has Kona solids in their stash or should I continue with my plans to mail some out to everyone?  The only 'required' color will be Kona Snow...anything goes with the other colors of the blocks...

Thanks

Jenny

February block!

I finished your block this morning, Lizzie!  I struggled with ideas, because I wasn't sure what would represent me, but am very pleased with the results!

A little "thread sketching" that mimics the frolic charms and some little bitty half-square triangles that are really sweet!  A bow and button to cover up a not-so-perfect corner and it'll go in the mail tomorrow!

As usual, I'm already really looking forward to next month!

If those of you that were interested in the second bee could please e-mail me--I can't figure out how to get an entire group of 12 to agree at the same time!!  But I want to get started!! taralynnrebman(@)gmail(.)com

Catching Up




Solidia, if the snow ever stops falling, the wind stops blowing, and the county gets a plow down our street, I'll be able to get to the post office and mail the block! I had a hard time with this one, but the paper piecing was fun, I hope it's okay with you.










And Elaine, here's a wonky star for you. If and when we get dug out, this will go into the mail at the same time. I just had to use something bright to remind that spring will come soon...maybe.


I've really gotten a lot caught up since we got snowed in, but it would be nice to get to the store again....

Tomorrow's project is Lizzie's block, and tonight I'll go through some of my books for an idea. I'm a little too new to this quilting genre to be able to pull something out of my head.
