I posted a few days ago about joining the #beehivelillypad2017 and being the February Queen.
I received all the blocks and got busy on putting together my quilt. You know I don’t like to have unfinished projects sitting around. Although right now I do have a few, okay only 2.
I chose Homebase by Blossom Heart Quilts It was a simple block. I chose white on whites as the background, greys for the pieces and bright colors for the middle. This was my sample.
Before I knew it March was upon us and the blocks rolled in. It was fun to see them posted online and then get them in the mail. A got a few extra blocks from some in the group, so I only had to make one additional block to come up with 16. So it was decided a 4 x 4 quilt.
I was so please with the finished quilt. The binding is my favorite black and white stripes.
The backing was a wide back piece I had left from other quilts.
I decided I will be donating this quilt to Hand 2 Help I stumbled upon them last year and made a few quilts. They are starting 2017 right now, so this will be one of my quilts for them.
