My bee month

So it is March and that means my 'bee' month.  very exciting.  I meant to be more organized, and have my fabric mailed out to the bee members before the end of the month, but being sick 1/2 of February really threw my month's productivity level off!

I mailed packets of Kona cottons to everyone...both bee!  Odd that I ended up having March in both monthes, but nice I think.  I sent everyone a fat eighth of Kona Snow and then some scraps of every color I could pull together. 

Hoping for flying geese, friendship stars, liberated stars and shoo fly blocks to make their way back to me over the next 2 months. 

The color wheel quilt is for Hugo's room, and these blocks will be for his room also.  Two twin beds in his room.  Here are a few sample blocks i made for the quilt:

I hope everyone has a good time with this month's block.

  1. Love your choices for your bee! The colors and contrast on that friendship start work fabulously. Looks like a fun project to work on.
