There was some sewing this weekend… well sort of. I only sewed one block. But I at least got the pieces cut to make the 30 more I will need.
His Lordship finally decided what he wanted to go with the nine patch bees we showed last week. A good ol’ Dizzy Daisy. And while these blocks are exceedingly easy to make, they do require a fair bit of cutting if you are doing them in any number. I need 31 daisies total. As you can see, one is made, but for the remaining 30 I had to cut 120 of the petal fabric, 120 of the centre fabric, and 240 of the background fabric.
After that, I just didn’t have the energy to make any more blocks. I’m hoping to sneak in an evening this week to get started on them. If not, it will be a weekend job.
This will give you an idea of the layout we are going for. Alternating bee/flower blocks, with black sashing and yellow corner stones. I think it’s going to look just perfect when its together.

Cutting out all of the pieces sure will speed things along for the piecing! Pretty!

That is a lot of cutting! I’m betting the sewing goes quickly once you have time to devote to it.
