February marked the end of my first bee year for the @unscriptedquiltsbee. I have really enjoyed the monthly challenges from fellow bee mates. Rounding out the season, @elizabethkray asked for Plus blocks using a palette of bright colors. It was fun to interpret this prompt in different ways for my blocks. @bysarahruiz asked for classic snake blocks with a pieced background. (My photo doesn't really capture the fabric colors correctly but the curve snake is a teal color.)
Here are all the blocks for my first year in the bee:

March kicked off the beginning of the new bee year. It was very fun to make these spring colored blocks. @emilylangquilts asked for stripes in spring orange, yellow, pink with small bits of blue and/or green.
My goal has been to get the blocks done in the month they are assigned. I've managed to do this so far, although I finished the February blocks on the last day of the month!
I've got June again this year. I've not yet decided on my prompt but still have time to do so. (For 2025, my prompt was balance - here are the blocks I collected and my quilt!)
It's been fun seeing what you create with and for your bee mates!
ReplyDeleteIt's great that you're enjoying this monthly block challenge. I'm guessing that most months you're finding yourself working on something you didn't think you'd be making, either colorwise or design-wise. Seems that making improv blocks each month like this would be a great way to "practice" improv and improve without a commitment to a large project on your own. I'll be interested to learn what you decide you'll ask for in June.
