It has been a while since I blogged and I'm sorry - I have sort of sold myself to IG (nickyeglinton) which is quicker to post on but I had intended doing better than this on my blog!
Well I have been busy stitching - did you expect anything else? And I have sort of got carried away by a few new projects...nothing new there!
The most delicious of which is my #nordikquilt! I set a challenge to my Stingy Bees for August: to make Scandinavian inspired blocks in red and cream with touches of aqua and teal; and they have not disappointed, indeed they have blown me away with their talent and generosity!
Maybe the photos should speak for themselves!

And with a few of my own blocks this is how it looks at the moment

And just today this gorgeous block arrived from Helen
But to appreciate the work involved in this one you do need a sense of scale....

It's looking really fabulous so far - what talented bee mates you have, to add to your own quilty awesomeness!
ReplyDeleteThis is an AMAZING collection of blocks. Fabulous efforts by all your bee buddies and great inspiration from your own stitching too. I love watching the progress of this one on IG and will continue to sigh every time you add a new pic.
