Bee Blocks

I'm very excited as June is my month in the Brit Bee!  I've chosen a nice simple disappearing 9 patch block and I'm hoping my lovely Bees will make me 2 blocks each. I decided that the Dream On fabric that I bought ages ago was perfect for a pretty summery quilt so I chopped it up and it's now winging it's way around the UK so the lovely Bees can get busy!

 I can't wait to see the blocks they make me - I love the disappearing 9 patch and think it will be gorgeous with the Dream On Fabric. Here's a little test block I made...
 


 I also managed to finish my blocks for the 3 x 6 Bee. The little hive that I'm is so lovely and chatty. We decided to make 2 blocks for each other as we were enjoying ourselves so much. Here are my finished blocks. I hope everyone likes them :)

 


 Thanks for visiting! Happy Monday.....

    I can't wait for my bee parcel. I want to get my hands on that fabric because I think I just may have to buy some for myself. Hope it isn't raining where you are today!

    These are all great blocks. I've been too chicken to join a bee although I was once asked!

    Uh...I am looking forward to that. Very summary fabric. I am on in July and have been pondering for weeks and weeks now what to do.
