FEBRUARY BEE BLOCKS

The past few days have been spent working on my February commitments. All my swap partners asked for easy blocks this month, so I had fun with them.

For Helen in my Scrappy? Sew bee it group

Jaclyn asked for a 'converging corners' block. This bee is called the Simply Solids bee and is made up of Canadians : )

and my blocks for the Heal@ do.good stitches group

I really enjoyed pulling scraps for these blocks, but realized after, I didn't use the colours Ella had asked for. I rather like the scrappiness of them so am going to make 2 more for her and keep these. They won't go to waste!

The next hexi-bet block F

I want to show you what my daughter did. She's apprenticing at an embroidery shop. They embroider logos and crests etc. onto jackets, hats, and things.  Last year she saw this drawing on the internet and fell in love with it. She drew her own version of it and left it in her scrap book. Last week she took it into work and was able to turn it into an embroidery pattern and stitch it onto this t-shirt.

--a young girl with long hair wearing a bandana and a striped t-shirt. Now that she is earning her own money, she's started buying fabric and stitched up these throw pillows. The fronts have a bit of quilting on them and she put zippers in the bottom.

Happy Mamma.
