Blocks....

I made two for my MCM bee quilt.


There are now twelve, with two more at the mercy 

of Australia Post!


And gift boxes....


for another little Christmas quilt I decided I needed 

to make!

Looks like I need to update my WIPs list...

Happy days!

I love these festive blocks, Susan! Seriously loving your fabric choices on those gift box blocks - too perfect. ;o)

Love your bee blocks and please, please can you tell me the fabric name for that darling piece (on the festive packages) with the reindeer riding bikes!!?? It's a Must-Have!

Those gift boxes are so clever, what a fantastic fussy-cutting project. The Charlie Harper birds look like they were made for it! Have a great week, Suz!

Love the cycling reindeer - such a fun fabric. I hope the other red and white blocks turn up soon.

I really like these blocks, especially those red stars.

Everybody needs a Christmas quilt, right?? I think that might be next on my list too - or at least a Christmas cushion :-)

It is sometimes more stressful posting those items off than making them - I always worry when my swaps go overseas.

Your bee blocks will make a very special Christmas quilt! I am so glad we all got to be a part of it! And those gift box blocks are incredible. The fabrics you chose make them extra fun! I look forward to watching the progress on both quilts!

Beautiful set of blocks--will you have to make more if the two arrive? And now another fun quilt in the making with the gift boxes? Too fun!

Love seeing these blocks. The red and whites are looking great. And the gift boxes are great fun with the fabrics you are using.

I like how your red and white quilt is coming along. The one reverse block really adds a lot of interest too. It will be a very cheery Christmas quilt.

Great blocks. I like that you have a reverse red and white block. And those reindeer riding bicycles are very cute!!

I really like those red and white blocks! I hope to make a red and white quilt some day...

Have you ever thought about a signature look for your quilts? You know how people just "know" it's got to be yours? It should be the single reverse block in a quilt that has that capability (not all will be maybe a smaller element would? My mind is spinning!). I have to admit I copied you and made a reverse block recently. Honestly I was nervous I would regret it because a lot of leaps turn out to be mistakes, but it looks fantastic!!!!! Don't you just wish there was like 8 extra hours everyday to play with fabric?

Your bee blocks look fabulous all together! Hope the postal service brings the others to you soon. I have to say I LOVE that Charley Harper Christmas gift block!!
