Happy mail again! All the blocks have arrived from my @unscriptedquiltsbee bee mates. Aren't they just wonderful?!!

This is my first experience with being part of a bee. I've enjoyed the making of blocks monthly along with the sending out the prompt and receiving all the happy mail. My month was June and my prompt was Balance and bee members were sent a color palette and a FQ of Painter's Palette Blackberry for the background. 

At this point, the quilt top is actually assembled and quilting is underway. I can't wait to share once the quilt is complete!

Have a wonderful day! Patty

New Haralson Bag

One of my most used bags is my Haralson Belt Bag (pattern by Anna @noodlehead ). I made mine several years ago - see it here - and have been wanting to make another one.

This bag is for my daughter for their upcoming travel. This bag was constructed all from odd shaped scraps leftover from prior projects. The main fabric is Cotton & Steel canvas called Botanical Floral which I used on an Oxbox tote - also a @noodlehead pattern - last November.

The lining fabric has been in my stash for a really, really long time and worked perfect for this bag.

The pattern is well written and the bag goes together well. I am most definitely making another for myself!

Have a wonderful day! Patty

Happy Mail - Bee Blocks

Blocks from @sarahgoerquilts and @emilylangquilts

Happy mail! Two more blocks arrived in the mail this week! 

I am a new member of the @unscriptedquiltsbee and it was quite exciting to send out my very first block prompt in June. My prompt was Balance and bee members were sent a color palette and a FQ of Painter's Palette Blackberry for the background. 

At this point, I've now got 8 blocks with the final two more expected later this month. These are so fun to take out and play with. I've got a general idea of what I'd like the final layout to be but clearly nothing formal until all the blocks arrive.

See the bee blocks I've made so far - still need to work on the August block.

Have a wonderful day! Patty
