Yesterday I finally got started on some of the outstanding Star Of Africa Bee blocks.
Cindy was Queen Bee for April, and wanted bright blocks (think of the brights in a box of crayons.) on a background of white Our blocks will be added to a rainbow coloured Around The World top, and our positions have been allocated!
She wanted the block to represent our home, and to show our name and our location. My home is the most boring looking home imaginable, so I decided to make the block show my life instead
My family
I started this blog for me - it expanded to show BFF Jackie what I was doing - and a few others have invited themselves too - everybody welcome! Mostly about patchwork, with random comments about embroidery, family and life in general, come on in, put your feet up, and I'll put the [virtual] kettle on.
they look great.. and I am SURE your home is not boring x
