My day schedule is more free with the kids in school and I was happy to accept the invitation.
The group has been doing a Queen Bee thing for the past few months, so I've been playing catch-up on the blocks.
Then some free form roses - again, we were asked not to trim.
Then words! We were supposed to choose something fun, or something we say, or something that represents us, or inspires us. I do catch myself saying "splendid" often. I think usually in sarcasm. I paper pieced my letters this time. To tell the truth, after a year of the "Spelling Bee", I've had my fill of words for a while.
My word with some of the others.
For our January "blocks" we were asked to make Alzheimers Activity Aprons. You can Google it for free patterns and ideas. I was happy to use some things I've had for years, like the tassel!
I also did some paper pieced leaves. I was given the fabric for the stems, the rest was "sunrise to sunset" colors with a sky blue background.
And, most recently we were asked to make some string pumpkins with gray back grounds. They did come out different sizes. I have fixed that.
My month will be March, I can't wait!

It is fun to get together to sew once a month. Glad you could join in. Fun to see all your queen bee projects on the blog.
