Modern Stitching Bee -October


Emily is this month's Queen Bee in the Modern Stitching Bee and has asked for highly contrasting log cabin blocks with low volume strips on one half and mainly blues to navys on the other. She has thrown in a wee red centre and a touch of yellow and green too.

These blocks are going to look smashing in a quilt and there will be so many possibilities for the layout. I wonder which she'll choose? I must admit to a little trepidation that my stash might not have quite been up to the selection of the right shades of blue, but fingers crossed they might just scrape by.

So, that's one set of October Bee Blocks sorted. Hoping to do the hipbees ones soon.
