Quilt Block for the Bee Quilt


My Fussy Cut Bee blocks have been coming in over the past few months.  I have received so many amazing blocks.  I am so excited for this quilt. (This one is going to be for me!)  I am waiting on one more person, and I will have received them all.  I took a break from quilting Josiah's quilt to make another quilt block myself.



For this quilt my theme is improv log cabins.  When looking for inspiration for the quilt I fell in love with blocks that involved little mini blocks.   One thing I have discovered about making a block like this is that I love how you are constantly creating.  With more traditional blocks you start off with a design, you pick which fabric goes where, and then you put it together.  With this kind of block I start off with a basic idea of things I want to implement, but I can keep "creating" as I go along.  I love seeing how it all ends up!  You can see my other block that I made for this quilt here.

Have you seen Quiltstory's Block Party?  Make a block and join in!
