Cutting Queen.

Posted at
Ugh.

Today I cut 526 strips for my new quilt, to be completed by my group from Simply Solids Bee.

It may as well have been 526000000000 pieces, I'm so exhausted!

KONA: Banana, Bone, Deep Rose, Ochre, Woodrose.
 An example of how the blocks will be constructed, each with a different order of the color palette I've chosen:
Center: Bahama Blue
Now, time to put my feet up!

    1. Thanks Rachel! LOL - for any new bees I might be crazy enough to sign up for, I'll be opting for a later month too - beginning of this year is going to be a busy one! :D

    2. I'm not til May, but I have narrowed it down between a "pick-up sticks" block with neon colors or monochromatic farmer's wife blocks.
