Stash bee 2020 - Hive 1

I'm the Queen Bee for our hive this year, so that means that I got my blocks first!  I really love how this turned out, although I did a slightly poor job with the instructions.  The ladies sent me a 3 patch block, so the repeat didn't work out correctly.  I took several apart and resewed them so the lightning would work well.

I originally saw this quilt at Quilt Vine.  I'm trying to do one quilt of every color but had already done a green one (like the original).  I don't have many reds in my stash, so it was a great choice for a bee.


It's been done for a while and just waiting to have it's picture taken.


I used red thread in the red in the red parts to quilt a jagged stipple.  As normal, I bound it in sateen.

  1. It's a very dramatic quilt - so much fun to make and now to see.
