Hello Everyone, most people seemed ready for Spring
And I ended up making 2 cute bee cushions.
I also made this table runner for a swap package and I love it so much, it can be used for half of the year, one side is Spring and in her favorite colors
And the other side is perfect for summer.
So cute right, my kids wanted to run off with the bitten Popsicle ice-cream I had to chase after them several times because they kept taking the applique piece away and pretending to eat it, before I got it sewed down.I also got in some FMQ this last month, I think my favorite type of FMQ is matchstick, it doesn't have to be perfect and it always looks so cool.
The winner of the first bee pincushion and extra goodies of 2 pins (flower pin and snowman pin), 3 Fat Eighths that go with the Sunflower palette, a bundle of mini charms from Notting Hill Joel Dewberry (that I used for the above Spring table runner) and a spool of Thread made in Greece.

Well Fenna I hope this brings a little warm weather your way :)
Didn't Win, no worries I have one more to giveaway and this package is so pretty!
There is a catch to this one, though I would like to have your vote on my fabric frame that I made with the Heart's Content Contest held by the Fat Quarter Shop.
A bee pincushion, 2 pins (a flower and snowman) a fabric basket, 3 fat eighths that match the jolly bar (30 5x10" brick charms) of Bee My Honey and 2 spools of thread made in Greece.
