happy flower qal week 26

This traditional quilt block is called Honey Bee and I've been attracted to it since the first time I saw it many years ago.  I've wanted to make a big quilt with it for a long time, I just never got around to making it - much like the Postage Stamp Basket block from a few weeks back.  I thought that making just this one block would scratch my years' long itch.  Turns out now I want to make piles and piles of them now more than ever.

 

Yay!  Another "free" block this week. :) This yellow print ... there's just something about this print by Atsuko Matsuyama that - for me - is the epitome of the style and spirit of this Happy Flower Quilt, don't you think?

I, too, love this block (honey bee.) I tried it once, but you did a much better job of it. Your curves are so nice and smooth. And I love your fabrics.

I will agree with you on that lovely yellow fabric! I have seen it many times and just LOVE it. May I also say the lamb is adorable and square-- divine!
