Look what I found lying on my front verge in the sunlight! No, not really, I did place it there! It is time for an
Around the Block 2 update.
I recently received my last block back from
Rachel. Thanks Rachel! I can't believe its my last one back though....
So I lay them out on the floor very excitedly and very randomly.
Then made two more blocks with the scraps I had been collecting as each block returned home. Block one....
... and block two. And then sewed it all together!
Then I sashed it with a 2.5 inch border. More to hold it all together until it was time to be quilted, but it does frame it nicely. I absolutely love it! I am very pleased with how it turned out. Thanks to all the lovely ladies who sewed a block for me.

I keep coming back to this quilt because I love your design and how you got all the squares and blocks to fit together logically. I'd love to use your idea and design for my bee quilt. May I please? Bethany
