I am desperately playing catch up on my Bee blocks and other projects that have been sitting around too long.
First up I have caught up on my Do.good.stitches blocks which included this fun ditty…
A wonderful wonky pin wheel. The pattern is from Greenleaf Goods who have a great tutorial on their site. It was a fabulous scrap buster and I am looking forward to doing my own version.
The other do.Good.stitches block that I have just finished up is the fabulous Granny Square block by Blue Elephant Stitches.
I have made this block a couple of times but love the instructions that my fellow Bee member added… Heather told us to make the white squares extra long… we added 3/4 of an inch to the pattern. This extra wiggle room makes trimming the block so much easier than the original pattern.
We also used 3 inch blocks instead of 2 1/2 inch squares and I am now fired up to use some of my 3 inch square scraps to make more of these blocks. But first I have to finish my original Granny Square quilt.
My Granny Square quilt is still on my 2014 To Do list but this week I did make some progress on the list … I am determined to finish my Denyse Schmidt Zakka flower quilt. I have made the last of the blocks…
And now I am onto sashing. I am hoping to have the top done for a Finish Friday… really hoping.
And of course because it is Wednesday I am linking up to Lee at Freshly Pieced..
