About 6 months ago I put my name down on a application to join do.Good Stitches managed by Rachel of
Stitched in Colour. It took a while but about two months ago I got placed into the
Care Circle (you might have noticed the button I put on my sidebar when I found out). I was really excited to be involved with a bee since I have never done anything like it before. The way this bee works is there ten of us, five Stitchers (who make 2 blocks per month) and five Quilters (who make 2 blocks per month, but twice a year they get to choose a block/quilt design, and make the quilt from all the blocks). I was pretty bold because I put my name down to be a Quilter. My turn is already coming up in February!
Anyway, for the January bee we had to make a red and aqua starflower block. Here are mine, ready to post to
Karen in Nthn Ireland (oh yeah, forgot to mention we are an international group).
