April OMG – #BeeLoved Done

April’s goal was to quilt and bind my #BeeLoved quilt.  This quilt is for my Niece’s wedding in October.  Her partner is a beekeeper, which is why I went with this cute bee fabric.   These were the blocks for the Squiggles quilt.  I used Bee Joyful by Deb Strain and Moda.

Here she is as a flimsy.  Taking pictures on a windy day is not easy.  But the sun was shining and it was a very nice Spring day, so why not.

The only way to quilt a Squiggles quilt is with squiggly lines.  I used my favorite variegated thread in golds and yellows.

 

I found this panel by Timeless Treasures and added it to the backing.

 

Here are a few pictures of her all put together and bound.

 

All of those blocks gave me a large amount of HST leftovers, so I made a Small Pieces Pillow.  I know you’ve seen it before, but it turned out very cute.

 

Just like late night infomercials, but wait there is more.  I still had HSTs left, so I made another pillow.  Just waiting to be able to go out and get the insert, but the pillows is done.  It is 14 x 10.

Hope you are all staying safe!

    What a great quilt and the special little panel in the back…perfect! I love that you got the extra pillows out of it too. And yes, Squiggles deserves squiggles. I’ll tell you more about my love of squiggles some other day!
