Winter 2014 4x5 Modern Quilt Bee

I finished up the winter round of the 4×5 modern bee, with wonderful results! I also have the final version of all of the blocks I made complete.

First up, the blocks I received. I was in Hive 4, and I think everyone really did a good job making some awesome blocks!

1. Philippa.G (Philippa), 2. JodiB63 (Jodi), 3. Mine, 4. Sew2879 (Kendra), 5. Hambone and Jennicakes (Jennifer), 6. mtclifford2012 (Maureen)

The blocks I sent are below. I used the January 2013 Lucky Stars BOM pattern from Don’t Call Me Betsy.

I’m linking up to the 30/30 Challenge, even though it’s kind of a stretch. I have been sewing, but between a terrible virus working its way through my household and a few dark and dreary days I have no pictures to show for it. Hopefully it will get nicer this week, and I can show my real progress.

1. COMPLETE: Two blocks for my “Real World Red & White” Sampler.

2. A shirt for me. I’ve been wanting to make my own clothes for awhile, so why not start?

3. Get ready for spring! I need at least one pair of shorts for my daughter, preferable more.

4. COMPLETE: Acknowledge that spring is not here yet, therefore make a couple pairs of pants for my daughter.

5. Complete the March Stash Bee block – that’s not a real goal, more of a must finish, but I think it still counts (and makes this list a little less clothing heavy).
