That’s my bee assignment for May: some Union Jack blocks sewn on paper, a fabulous block, it’s really tempting to start such a quilt for myself! #quiltsky

I‘ve been working on the #365blockschallenge for ages, lots of tiny blocks, each with an individual fabric choice, so exactly MY cup of tea! 🤩 This is my first corner block! I‘ve got three more corner blocks and three more outer borders to sew, so mayday you‘ll see the finish anytime soon

Long time no see here, I‘ve hardly had any quilting time until this week, so I‘ve got some projects done! I‘m trimming the quilts I have quilted this week. These are: 1.) Algorithmus Quilt After an improv score, 2.) Nine Patch & Snowball Quilt 3.) Ocean Waves Quilt with pillow shams. #quiltsky

Didn’t have much time for sewing in the past two weeks, but now I’m off to my machine! #quiltsky

At my quilt guild, we run a challenge every other year, and the current challenge is a kind of scrap vortex quilt (after the technique by @crazymomquilts) - I decided to use all my black and grey solid scraps, and obviously, after changing my layout, I still have some work to do… #quiltsky

Do you sew in bee groups? What are your February assignments? Mine were X And Plus blocks for @butterblume219.bsky.social - she had cut and packaged every block for us, we just had to sew. Thank you for this wonderful assignment, these blocks are cuteness!

My bee quilt is a top! My bee mates made the nine patches, I added the black corners to the low volume background squares and have sewn together the quilt top this morning. Inspired by the Nine Patch and Snowball Quilt by @saija_elina and thanks a million to my bee friends for their help! #quiltsky

Throwback Tuesday: Here’s one of my quilts from before BSKY: That’s my Polar Night Star Quilt, designed by me, made with 30 large and 42 small stars on a midnight background, gifted to a very dear friend for their 40th birthday. Isn’t it wonderful to sleep under a sky full of stars? 💫🌟⭐️✨

Let‘s start February 2025 with my current bee quilt, a nine patch and snowball quilt inspired by @saija_elina (on IG). #quiltsky #quilting #quilt

Does anyone here sew in a bee group? If yes, what do your typical bee assignments look like? Here‘s mine for January, those little hearts (3.5“) are sewn on paper and are part of a huge heart quilt with over 300 hearts by @fethis.bsky.social - this will be a wonderful quilt! 🩷🖤💜🖤 #quiltsky

As I’m cataloguing my work on MyQuilts App, it’s convenient to show it here, too, to build a new #quilting community here. That’s my Ravenbrook Quilt after the QAL by @der_rabe_im_schlamm, finished by middle of December, all from my scrap collection. #quiltsky

This is my latest finished quilt, my Crazy Tula New York Beauty Quilt adapted from the book New York Beauty and Flying Geese Quilts by Carl Hentsch, all Tula Pink fabrics, longarmed by Katrin Lobeck @lokasquiltart (on IG), big stitch handquilted by me - definitely an all time favourite! #quiltsky
