Modern Irish Bee: February

I am a wee bit late in making my Modern Irish bee blocks for Karen.  I honestly did start earlier in the month, but mis-planned my cutting and ran out of background fabric!  Yikes!  Luckily Karen was totally gracious and Anneliese had a bit extra for me.  Everything has worked out in the end.

Karen asked for a variation on the traditional nine patch using this tutorial using Chicopee fabrics.  Yum yum.



I hope you like the, Karen.  I can't wait to see this quilt.  With these prints you won't go wrong!
