Hello Bee-mates!
I am so excited to return to Stash Bee in 2024! I believe I participated in Stash Bee for 7 years….first as a hive mate, then as a Hive Mama, then assisted Alana when Diana stepped down in 2019.
I needed a break as well and have been gone for a few years. But it’s so good to be back and creating again!
I have made some beautiful quilts with the help of all my hive-mates! I’m sure this one will be amazing as well. I’m keeping it pretty simple…I saw a similar block and sketched it in my idea book so I created this tutorial-I’m calling it a Split-Six block and it’s super quick and easy!
It finishes at 12” but just send me the 4 corners loose
as I’m not quite sure on my design plans.
My color inspiration- rich pinks, oranges and yellows - also white or low volume:
My fabric pull:
Simply choose 4 fabrics and cut each into a 6” square:
.
Then cut each square in half so you have (2) 3” pieces.
Next cut (4) 1 x 6” strips of white and/or low volume.
Add strip to one side of the split square, pressing away from the white strip.
Then attach the other side, pressing again away from the white.
Repeat 3 more times.
And you’re done! Send the 4 corners to me as is and I
guarantee I’m going to have a blast creating the design!
Please let me know if you have any questions!
