Hive 1 March Blades of Grass for Julia

 It's the last day of the month, but the blades of grass are finished and in the mail! Thanks for requesting such a fun technique!

Hive 1 March Block for Julia

 Hi there! Here is my block  :) Lining up the strips so they looked random was harder than I anticipated. Very fun and easy technique. Thanks Julia!

Hive 1 - Grass block for Julia

 This was my first foray into the world of jelly roll quilt construction and it was super easy. I'm not one to sew with a scant 1/4-inch seam, so my block actually came out a bit bigger but I didn't want to trim it down. I'm going to let you decide where you want it trimmed. I hope that's ok.

Hive 1 🌱 for Julia!!

Julia, here are some blades of grass! I've never made a jelly roll race quilt, so it was fun to use this technique for the first time. I'm glad I'd bulked up my green stash for Adrienne's blocks. 😅

They're already in the mail! 

March Green Grass done!

 I just finished up these fun little grassy blocks.  They should be off in the mail tomorrow or Saturday. 

Completed quilt from January in Hive 4

 Thanks to Hive 4 and a kind hive crasher for helping me make such a sweet little baby quilt. I mailed it off to its new home today.

Hive 1 March block for Julia

 Hi Julia,

Thank you for such a great block! I thought I had found all my greens for my block but I found MORE green in my stash that worked perfectly for your grass blocks. A jelly roll race quilt is on my to-do list so this was an awesome introduction, it was so much fun to make!

The photo looks more yellow than I expected, I am in a hotel at a quilt retreat this weekend but they really are a lovely blend of green. I got a lot of folks stopping to see what I was up to, they absolutely loved your block!

Hi -

I’ve never done a jelly roll race before. Fast and fun!  Thanks for the opportunity. Hope they look like blades of grass. They were mailed Tuesday 📫

These blades of grass blocks came together super quick and were lots of fun. My bucket of green scraps got quite the workout! Thanks Julia for giving us a creative way to support your eco-conscious blanket project.

Crashing Hive 1!

Hi Julia C.! Here is a surprise from Hive 6😄

This was a fun project, I just couldn't resist jumping in (uninvited).

It's in the mail, should arrive on Monday (I'm tracking it).

Take care,

Marie
