Thank you Hive 2 - March blocks are stitched into a finsihed quilt

I just love my quilt.  Thank you all for making blocks for me. I FMQ'd the quilt and pebble quilted the stars. Jan


May Hive #1 blocks

I sent these blocks off to Beky yesterday.  




I wasn't happy with the block on the left as the right side of the X was so close to the edge so I made a 3rd block. 

Hope you can use these blocks Beky!

Hive #1 Finshed Quilt

I finally finished my Stash Bee Quilt! I was so lucky to have a great group of gals in hive #1 sending me blocks, I also received a few from outside the group to complete this quilt.  I would like to thank everyone who helped make it!! I think it turned out amazing. I had asked bee members to make wonky star blocks and wonky log cabin blocks.  I had enough blocks to make one quilt for charity and one quilt to keep.

In light of the recent tornado's in Moore Oklahoma I have decided to send this quilt plus another one I had made to a church out there so they can give it to someone in need.
 



And the back...
 Perfect size!
 
I absolutely love it. It has four 12.5 inch blocks across and five 12.5 inch blocks down. I added a border and it now measures approximately 52 inches by 64 inches.
I quilted it with straight lines about 1/4 inch apart. After it was washed it became so crinkly and cuddly. I am sure at its new home it will be loved.

Thanks for stopping in and thanks to all that helped!!

May Hive #1 May Blocks

I love wonky but as you se I sometimes find to make things wonky. They often come out look un-wonky. For example... this months blocks...



 
Here they are and I hop you like them and can use them. They were fun to make!
