Do.Good Stitches: October

This month in the CARE circle of Do. Good Stitches we are making Patchwork Wheel blocks using this tutorial.  I was not really in a sewing mood yesterday afternoon, but decided these HAD to be done last weekend to be sure I stay up to date with my bee blocks.


I must say, the direct simplicity of this tutorial and the bright colors in this block brought me right out of my slump and made me happy to sew.  


Whew!  Only one bee left this month.  I think I'm going to make it!
