If I do say so myself...

Is this not just too stinkin' cute???  I absolutely love it.  It's a block for my Wonky Bee.  The Queen Bea (not a misspelling, her name is Bea, lol, although she pronounces it Bee-uh :) sent the pretty fabric out and requested a house on the block along with 'something else'.

 I LOVE my something else!!!


I also put some stitching in the windows after I photographed them...I forgot until I saw the pic!  The color is bad in the photos...I don't know why - I took this one below just a half hour before.  Sigh.




I also finished the stitching on the Chinese checkers block, but will take a photo tomorrow in the light.  And I designed a block, I think... at least, I haven't seen it anywhere else but you can't really say you 'designed' a bunch of squares and lines together, can you?  I read what my friend Sunni had to say on her blog about this subject earlier...well, what those commenting had to say really, not Sunni... and agree that there really just isn't any such thing as a new block left outside of those picture type paper-pieced blocks.  Still, I'm kind of liking it and even if it turns out there are quilts full of the block out there I still think I like it.  I'm going to piece one together tomorrow and I'll post it.   Tomorrow I'll also be working on the BeeJeebers March block - a gorgeous scrappy HST star - and an equally gorgeous red, white and blue paper pieced star for my friend Cindy who is queen bee of the March Stash Bee.  I'll be back to report on how it all went tomorrow night.
