The month of June was a bit chaotic for us since we moved and had 2 road trips all within 3 weeks at the start of June. Needless to say, my bee blocks were made at the very end of the month and sent out a tad late. Thankfully the queen bee for the month of June was Michele E. and she was super gracious about it.
Michele picked the double star block for her block. It was the same block we had made in May, but Michele's color scheme was totally different. She wanted super saturated shades of eggplant, magenta with accent colors of chartreuse and coral. Yum! I didn't realize until I pulled together some fabric for her block just how much I Love these colors! I see some serious stash building of these colors in my future. ;)
Here are the two blocks I made for Michele. I was pretty thrilled to get my hands on some brand new not even released to stores Cotton and Steel fabric to include in her blocks making them a little extra special. And hopefully that made up for the fact that my blocks turned out a bit wobbly - the flying geese in these block just did.not.like.me.....
I might have had a little fun checking out Michele's Instagram feed and noticed that she loves sharpies. Yup, that meant that I just had to get her a sharpie in each of the colors she had picked for which she was pretty thrilled about. I also sent along the left over scraps I had of the brand new Cotton & Steel which Michele promptly included into one of her projects the same day she received the package I sent her! Love that!
