The March guild meeting was all a Buzz with excitement! Our first UFO prize was this awesome fat quarter stack of chevrons sponsored by Riley Blake. I would’ve died to win this and it looked so cute on my fabric shelf but sadly I had to part with it. It went to a good home and not to worry…there’s plenty more goodies to be had at our next UFO drawing this June. If you’re putting off finishing up one of those forgotten projects, you have three months to get your rear in gear…get it done!
Are you ready to Bee wowed by the cuteness factor of our March door prize? I used an orphaned dresden block, Ring a Ring a Roses Candlemat dresden, from one of my demos and whipped up this little bit-o-honey.
I’m kinda obsessed with small projects lately.
Just a few matching fabric scraps, trim and some embroidery.
TBT..I didn’t wanna part with this either:) But that’s what it’s all about right? Whether I’m making projects, participating in swaps or giveaways, I always strive for my best work. After all, it’s a reflection of myself in each project. My goal is to make something I don’t want to give away. Because if I love it, so will someone else!
Bee your best. Bee-lieve in yourself. Bee Creative!

This is the cutest quilt, it would be perfect on a sewing room wall. Is there by chance a pattern? I just love it!

Hi Trudy and thank you! I did not have a pattern when I made this and did not take notes. It is on my to-do list though! Hopefully I can get to writing one soon. When I do, I’ll send you an email. Thanks!

Hi Lisa
I’m so sorry but I don’t have a formal pattern for the mini quilt. I free handed the Bee Creative wording and used a different embroidery pattern for the inside of the Dresden. I made the rest up as I went along. I wish I could be of more help!

This is beautiful. I’m a beginner and am obsessed with Dresden plates. Working on a king quilt now. I’m probably biting off a little too much, but it’s turning out beautifully.

Thank you Sallie! Dresdens are one of my favorite blocks. I’m sure your quilt will be beautiful!

It is absolutely adorable! I can see why you didn’t want to part with it. And I loved your thought that each project is a reflection of you. I guess I’ve always believed that, but never put it into words.
