Well after a couple of weeks of sewing I finally have completed my six blocks for the
3x6 mini bee over on
Flickr. Sewing time has been squeezed in around hectic planting and weeding on the allotment. The first spring crops are starting to be harvested, with asparagus,
pakchoi and salads now a regular on our table.
As the only Brit in my bee I decided to go with a Union Jack inspired block, using the colour choices my beehive peeps requested. They caused a great deal of head scratching, a bit of swearing and some taking out of wrong seams and re-sewing but I got there in the end!
Love those union jacks...they are fab!!
ReplyDeleteJo! They're fantastic!!! I love the color combos and your piecing looks wonderful. All that head scratching was very worth it. And how fun to have your very own asparagus - Yum!
ReplyDeleteThose are fantastic - my MIL is from GB and she would LOVE this. A tutorial in the future?
ReplyDeleteHave you been to the V&A exhibition? They have a great modern union jack quilt in that!
ReplyDeleteYou must post a tutorial for those! I have a little man Jack, and would love to make that for him!
