Lucky13 Bee Goes to Kansas for Karen

Here's my "Rocky Road to Kansas" block for Karen (Dec Queen Bee). Thanks to the super-thorough "freshlemonquilts.com" demo link & copies Karen included, the piecing went very smoothly and was a lot of fun.  I dug through my stash & found a small piece of green Kaffe Fassett "Short Stripes" fabric that a friend had given me, but I had not yet used.  I ended up loving how it looks when cut so much that I went online and ordered 2 yards of it, so don't be surprised to see it reappear down the line.  (FYI - While I do the vast majority of my fabric shopping locally, Quiltmaker magazine had an ad for Keepsake Quilting's new "UptownQuilter.com" with 15% off for first time shoppers promo code UQQM12C (expires 1/1/12), providing justification for an immediate purchase.  Not that it ever takes much prompting...)
