The weekend did afford one full day in the studio. Once again, I was fighting the urge to start something new. But my Blockhead quilt was still sitting there… just waiting to be put together. And Burton had a plan!
It involved fussy cutting a pile of wee bees.
We turned them into little cornerstars between the blocks. Here’s a closer look.
Then it was time to add a few borders.
Here’s a closer look at those…
It all totals up to a nice little lap quilt (56″ x 70″)
I’ve got this lovely yellow paisley for the back, and more bees for the binding.
And apparently, I did start a new project after all…
I’ve got enough of those fussy cut bees to make 35 little nine patches…. oh dear….

Burton does have the best ideas, so it’s always best to listen to him. I LOVE bees so I’m in love with this quilt top.
Blessings and hugs,

Those are my colors right now. I don’t know why but I’m all about black and yellow. I saw a lady in a mustard gold/yellow jacket yesterday and got a bad case of the wants.
