Trish's Churn Dash Block

 I love January!

All the chaos of the holidays

are over

and 

there is time to get back to 

day to day life.

No more rushing from 

here to there

and back again.

I actually have a few moments

to think about what I would

 like to do

rather than what

I should do.

And what would I like to do?

Get back to my machine and

quilt

of course :)

 Now that it is January,

it's back to working on blocks 

for my fellow 

Bees Knees  members

This month, we are making a 

 12 " Churn Dash block

for the darling Trish of Notes of Sincerity

 Trish sent us some pretty cute fabrics to make her block.

The vintage blues and reds have a Cath Kidston kind of feel.

 The pattern Trish chose for us to work from 

is known by many names.

To make a 12-inch block she 

requested we follow the instructions of

Greek Cross

*see free tutorial by Faith of Fresh Quilts

Notice how different this block looks from a Churn Dash

 using 6 different fabrics

rather than the 2 colors Trish sent us?

I love being part of the Bees Knees

Trish will receive 10 other blocks

made especially for her

by the other members

(hopefully)

very soon.
