Sew Bee Blissful: January

Won't these make a spectacular quilt?  I love the colors.  I love the prints.  I love the block design.  You can't go wrong with this combination!


These are my Sew Bee Blissful blocks for January and I think they're just great.  I hope our Queen Bee for the month likes them too!  Now, these were fun to make because there really are not corners to match.  I didn't think, though, that that makes it difficult to center each piece appropriately.  So, I really hope the blocks I made match with the blocks my hive mates made.


Still, they make me happy.  I hope they brighten your day too.  Can not wait to use this block in a quilt I keep for myself :)

Love the sunny yellow and cute birds. Any chance of sending a drop of sun over to us in Britain? I just crave the sunlight and warmth. Those blocks are a close second!
