Timeless Treasures Dash Basic Block Challenge - Buddy Block Quilts For Kids

Last year, February 2016, we teamed up with Timeless Treasures to create Quilts For Kids charity quilts using #QuiltsForKids' Dash Basic fabric.  The bright, tone on tone colours are fun to work with and 10% of the net sales of the fabric are donated to the organisation.

This is the challenge they set for us (click on the images to make them larger):

Improv: Beyond The Bee and Y-Seam Tute

Hi everyone, I've completed Jenny's scores for the May Improv: Beyond The Bee blocks and I've written this blog post sharing my process and thoughts.  


On my own blog for reference, I also have  this page detailing instructions for all 2012-2015 original Guild Bee blocks alongside Challenge blocks and Block Lotto, etc. 


Back in March, after demoing Y-Seams at the Guild meeting I posted A Beginner's Guide To Y-Seams and shared it on the Guild's private Facebook page.  I don't think everyone accesses the Facebook group so I'm taking the opportunity to mention it here too.


Over the summer I'll post a binding tute based on the demo I did at the May meeting, I'll let you know when it's available.  

Can't wait for the retreat this weekend and wishing everyone a really great summer :D - Chris

Cloud9 Fabrics Challenge Block

I expected this to take longer than it did (probably because, like others, I found the instructions to be less than crystal clear), but it was a quick project.  It was fun working with the HST placement to find just the right fit.
