This is the back of the quilt. If this is her first quilt, I can’t wait to see what develops as we get our Bee up and running. Anyone interested in participating in the Modern Bee please come and join us on the fourth Wednesday of the month from 10 – 5. Note: you need not stay the entire day if you don't want to, but we’d like you to come spend what time with us that you can.
Today I was scheduled to attend a class at the shop. I had my pattern, fabric cut, and everything ready for a productive day. Then I got up to a blizzard swirling through western Michigan. Ugh. I was filled with mixed emotions when I received a call to tell me the class was cancelled. I was thankful for the cancellation as I didn’t think I’d be able to get out of my drive, much less make it to the shop. However, I was really looking forward to the class. So, all primed to sew, I went to my studio and made my sampler block. How wonderful not to be making this block at 9 on a Friday night to get it finished for the Saturday class, which is usually the case. This block was not easy for me. Piecing is not my best talent. However, I took it slow and easy and followed Vickie’s directions which she gave me when she recently visited. I don’t think it turned out too bad. How about you? Do you have your Sampler block finished?
