The Second Half


Here is the Bee Blessed quilt top all pieced with the second half added - a whopping 60.5" x 83" (well, whopping to me anyway).  The colours are a bit bleached out in this pic but trust me they are bold and bright and look glorious against that navy background.  Judith and I have worked together piecing the word blocks for the quilt and I have really enjoyed planning and stitching square motifs to "fit" the row widths.  Good workout for the brain!

It might sound funny, but I think I have pieced a little bit of my heart along with my prayers into this quilt for its very special recipient.
