I had fun making the block this month. Yellow is a favorite color and the flying geese are a favorite block (I have a lot of favorite blocks).
I did a few different blocks this month, using fabrics from my stash. I wanted to try different shades of yellows.
I also decided to do a black in there as well. Yellow and black reminds me of bees, and I love bees, particularly honey bees.
Remember if you want to get the free block, head over to Jen's blog at Patternsbyjen.blogspot.com
Thanks for joining me today. Before we go though, I want to share something I have been doing this year. In March I purchased the EQ 8 software and have started designing and writing patterns. I have had fun doing this. I wrote a EPP Hexie pillow pattern last year and taught the technique at a retreat in February. It was a fun class. This is the pillow I made
If you would like a copy of this pattern, please go to my Facebook page at www.facebook.com/kathyskwiltsandmore and let me know you would like one. I have designed more quilts and am in need of pattern testers. One of the projects is an EPP project, and if you enjoy EPP I would love you to test for me
Thanks again for joining me today.

ReplyDeleteThe monthly color challenge is quite a task because managing color variations and getting them right can be really time-consuming. While some people enjoy doing it, I found it exhausting. I only participated in the color challenge once, and it left me so drained that all my other work got delayed. Because of this, I searched for someone who could do my dissertation for me, my dissertation was completed on time.
ReplyDeleteWhen I saw the May 2024 Color Challenge, the soft greens and light blues immediately reminded me of a time during my health care studies when I was overwhelmed with assignments. Daily classes, clinical work, and deadlines had left me mentally drained. During that phase, I started sketching a little, just for myself. I also had to get some assignment help for health care students so I could complete my work on time. As the stress eased, the same calming colors I used in my sketches began to bring me peace. Maybe that’s why this challenge's colors feel so close to my heart.
