I finished up my March Bee Blocks today. I think they're pretty cool! I will tell you though, having made 9 versions of this block, each with 24 - 2" half square triangles, that I'm over HST for awhile (if you were doing the math in your head that is 216 HST). I signed up for two spots this month, which means I'll get 8 blocks back instead of the usual 4.
You've seen my test block:
Hive 1:
|
Teal, Coral/Orange, Navy on Low Volume
For Jennifer |
|
Black, White, Various Grey with Hints of Color
For Tiffany |
|
Pink, Red, Teal on White
For Debbie |
This one was hard to photograph. The background is a beautiful deep purple.
|
Yellow, Orange, Red with Dark Pink or Purple Background
For Terri |
Hive 3:
|
Sunny Reds, Pinks, Orange, Yellow with Berry Tones on White
For Jocelyn |
|
Red and Grey on White Low Volume
For Tamara |
|
Purple, Cobalt Blue, Kelly Green on White
For Jenn |
|
Coral, Aqua, Mustard on Low Volume
For Renae |
I think they look so fun together too. What do you think? If you want to make a similar block
Amy Friend did post a tutorial awhile back. She calls this block a "Winged Square".

Love your blocks and they look perfect! That's a lot of itty bitty HSTs. . . I think I would have been over them at about 10 ;) They do look very cool altogether!
ReplyDeleteThanks! I like them but I've definitely had my fill for now.
