ScrappyBee Blocks:for Lauren ~ Catch up!

'Miss January' 
Finally got to get Belated Bee Blocks to Lauren.   
String Pieced blocks, inspired by Film In the Fridge "Faceted Diamonds" ... 
I see making more of these blocks in my future. 

Guild Nights - second thursday - favorite Night of the month. 
 Playing catch up - Sadly missed the past few meetings!
Safely delivered all past due blocks! 
Whew, what a great feeling.

Merry Christmas to me... Thanks KCMQG!

Another Reason i love the KCMQG! I won the Kona Color Card!
... so i got to take it off my wish list!
How great is that!? ... I would love to show you the fun 2.5sq's of fabric that i received in the swap, or my Hot Pad from Petra ... from our Log Cabin Hot Pad Swap with our Modern Guild sisters in Portland.
 I will get pictures posted later ...
... truth be told, i feel crummy
... and am typing this with one old kitty laying on me to keep warm.
.. quite comical to picture...
~ but, instead, I am going to show-n-tell the Habitat quilt top/back that i completed - but Have not had time to quilt yet ... but am looking forward to playing with some techniques
... SO, the next time you see this 'ugly thing' (as my daughter calls it)
... will be when it is completely quilted, bound and  DONE!
(i finally got these pictures uploaded,
one step forward, two steps back!)

 The weather kind of has me down... But, i have had a chance to briefly hang out in my studio to play with the KC Scrappy Bee Blocks ... Forrest & Fields for Nancy 
 ... I have been missing in action from blog-land, mostly cuz i just have not found my life that thrilling, besides hearing my son play the BASS & the Orchestra presentation of 'A Night at the Movies'
... But, i hope to show you soon what i am making for my grand-son!!! super excited about that! ...
i guess i can tell you, as he cant read yet! ...
  =D  It's a Quiet Book! 
... for now, i have to go let the dog out, she fell down the stairs earlier and was a little freaked out, and flattered we all ran to check on her! 
Keep WARM!

No need to quarter them, i may choose some to remain whole
