Bees are my friend

YSo I have been a member of the Lake Superior Modern Quild Guild for a couple years now. 

This year we started a Quilting Bee. In August we made these pineapple blocks for a member. The pineapple block has always been a favorite of mine. And I enjoyed making this block. 
BUT I quickly realized that a pineapple block quilt is not in my future. There are 49 pieces in that block alone!! 

Here are everyone's blocks together at the meeting last night. 
Sorry about the bad lighting. 

For September we needed to make a wonky diamond block. 
Not my favorite fabrics. But she asked for Browns and she likes batiks. She loved the block. 

Here are the blocks for the group. 
I am the queen for November. Can't wait.

How about you? Have you been in a Bee before? Did you like it?

  6. Vì vậy, hãy bắt đầu chuyến thăm của bạn bằng một chuyến tham quan đi bộ qua Khu phố Pháp , nơi di sản thuộc địa vé máy bay đi mỹ giá bao nhiêu và truyền thuyết ma quái vẫn còn tồn tại. Từ đây, bạn có thể khám phá các địa điểm kiến ​​trúc lớn trước khi thưởng thức một đĩa jambalaya thịnh soạn và một buổi tối náo nhiệt.
