And white leads the way from winter into spring..

Forgive my wonky photo.  I had limited options to lay these babies out and snap a picture before my son ran in to whip them off the coffee table.  I had tried a couple of times, but I couldn't for the life of me get them to photograph well in my poorly lit (east facing) sewing room, especially on a backdrop of my Warm & Natural design wall. 
anyway, I love them.  36 wonderfully white 5.5" squares. 

Thank you so much to all the Scrap Bee ladies who sent them to me.  Opening each package filled me with surprise and delight.  That's one of the best part of online bees though, isn't it?  Getting a nice package in with all the bills and junk mail..

What's next for these you ask?  Ideas have been brewing, but I'm kind of curious to know what would you do with them?

Blocks for Jessica

Jessica I made these blocks for you:

I know its getting close to the end of the month, but they are going out first thing Monday! Since you said you wanted "shades of white" to remind you of winter, I included a few Holiday/wintery pieces as well. Hope you like these!

White blocks for Jessica and a peek for V

Betcha can't make just one!



Here's a corner of a trade for V. She's always pushing us to be our best!

Scrap Bee MARCH

On Friday, things looked so promising, spring seemed so close..

 And then this morning I woke up and saw snow out my window.

March is my month for the SCRAP Bee and I had been toying with a few ideas for my blocks

but with this morning's snow, I knew exactly what I wanted. 

Let's appreciate the last few weeks of winter and make blocks in

 shades of white.

As you can see, my definition of "white" is pretty flexible so creams, beige, prints, and greys are OK. 

I even used the back side of a piece of light blue. 

One pop of color (i.e. a yellow scrap) is welcome, but please keep it tiny!

Make your block from your preferred scrap piecing method: V's 5-sided shape, free pieced, foundation pieced, paper pieced, .. whatever works for you. 
I'd like the block you send to be 5.5" unfinished and please sign and date the front. 
If you want to use freezer paper to stabilize the block before writing on it, that's fine.  I just wrote slowly..

Thanks Bee gals!
