It's a top!

I  received my last two blocks in the mail this past weekend, so I was super motivated to get the top completed.  I'm hoping to take it on the road with me for my first recruiting trip so I can stitch in my hotel room in the evenings.

 

It measures 64" x 85.5" - big enough to cover a twin bed with 10" of drape on both sides and the bottom of the bed.

 

Definitely big enough to cuddle up in on the porch as I look out on the morning rain.

Thanks for helping me make this quilt!  I've had an inspiration photo saved on my computer since 2006!

String Star quilt coming along nicely

I received 3 more squishy packages from Sara, Carolyn and Bailey - thanks guys!

Look how great my quilt is looking! I need to knock out a couple more blocks and put this top together. I think this is one that will become a real quilt sooner rather than later - I'm so excited about it!

Thanks! from Erin

I came back from vacation to FOUR squishy packages from Bee members.  Thank you, Linda,

Charlene (who added a Christmas Tree Skirt Pattern for me - extra thanks!)

Ann

 and Christina!

 (I hope I put the right name with the right blocks!)

I love how it is turning out so far!

Coming soon to a mailbox near you!

I spent part of the weekend prepping the fabric and instructions for June, and I'm taking them all to the post office today. 

When you open your package, please don't think, "Man, this lady can't match fabrics to save her life!" I chose a super scrappy project to help me tame some of my overflowing scrap bins, so there is no rhyme or reason to the scraps you received. The block is quick and easy, nearly mindless sewing. I look forward to getting your blocks back from you so I can finally put together this quilt I've had my eye on for years!

Mollie's Block

I sent this block June 3 a few days late.  I hope she gets it soon as the place I mailed it from returned the other package I sent at the same time for no reason.
