I finished up Megan’s block for Bee Hexed In–I ended up adding in a couple yellow/orange colors. I think it might be my favorite of the four I have already made but when I see them all together I think they are all pretty rockin’. =)
I finished up the cutting on the Single Girl quilt I am working on for the quilt along. I am making the twin size so I had to cut 31 pieces for each of 12 rings. I was glad that I didn’t check to see exactly how many rings I needed prior to beginning the cutting–had, I known/remembered that I needed 12 I may not have started. =) My DVR was all ready with lots of reality tv shows recorded (you know I’m a reality TV junkie) so the time went quickly. My two year old, Elonie, also helped me choose the fabric order along with big sis Chloe, that was also entertaining. =p
I thought I would take a minute and share some of my favorite Birdie Stitches blocks that have popped up in the flickr group recently.

Aren’t they totally cute? You can join in on the BOM any time you’d like. New blocks are posted the 1st of every month & you’ll find all the info. that you need over in my side bar under Birdie Stitches. =)
And here it is almost the first of another month and I haven’t even gotten to start yet. I will though. Eventually.
I just love all the “Bee Hexed In” blocks I see on the different blogs but cannot find a way to join the group. When I click on the links posted, I am taken only to the Flickr group showing more beautiful blocks. Can someone give me the link to becoming a member? thanks.
“Bee Hexed In” is a 12 member quilting bee–we are currently full. If you are interested in the pattern–you can find it in the first issue of Fat Quarterly which is available at http://www.fatquarterly.com. =)
I just love all the Bee Hexed In blocks!! I had to buy the first issue of Fat Quarterly the other day when I realized the pattern was in there! Hexagons look a little intimidating, so a small project like this will be perfect to try them. 🙂
The Hexed blocks are amazing!!! Holy smokes, I have to make some! 😀
Corey, I’m so in love with my block! Thanks dear!
Love the hexagons. I may have to do some one of these days. It’s a great stash buster, too.
Love the brown hexie block the best!
I think that this newest one is my favorite too. The colors are just quite special.
Thanks for including me in your favorites!
It was very exciting to see my block here. I appreciate you including me!! I am totally loving the embroideries. Thanks for sharing these too!!
What a great birdie stitches!
I hope to start mine in about a couple of weeks, first I have to finish a flowergarden and bring birth to my second ;o)
Truly lóve the brown Bee-Hexed In block (Januari?)!
Yes! I have joined my sister and mom in the BOM! Looking forward to those lil birdies next appearances! These projects are so inspiring.
