The swap I am in is a secret. The person I am making for does not know who I am, and I do not know the person who is making my quilt. We are encouraged to show things that we like from the book so our partner has some ideas. I happen to like this hexagon quilt with the embroidered bee........hint hint.
I got my background pieces cut out today, (88) 1 1/2 x 2 1/2 pieces! A lot of cutting but my scraps came in handy and made this a quick job.
Remember this? I started it a few weeks back. I took them with me to our getaway in the Poconos and worked a little bit on them. It's rainy here today, sorry for the lousy pictures.
They are time consuming but not hard. I am enjoying working with this color palette, it feels like fall.
I have some time this weekend to sew and may go back to these. Is this called Sewing ADD? I also have some NEW projects I would love to start.....too many things to make, so little time.

Are the swap quilts all to be made with patterns from the book? Your bright blocks are full of spark! Does the block have a name? I bet it's a fun one to match the fun personality they have.
ReplyDeleteI like the project you are hinting at for your swap. looks great.
