    Thumbs up New Quilting Bee March, 2017

    Can you believe it’s March already? The year is sure moving on. Seems everyone is enjoying this. There’s going to be some very pretty tops by the end of the year. Keep having fun.

    The one stipulation is that when you have made your block, you must post a picture(s) in order to be in the next month. The blocks will be 10” finished.

    This month's blocks have been chosen by Chasezzz (Karen). Thank you, great patterns.

    We welcome new participants. Just send me a PM or post on the New Bee for the month and I will make note that you would like to join. I hope that everyone who wishes to join, stays with us for the year. Even if you have to play catch-up, one block is all it takes to stay in.

    This is my first attempt at his block. I have been trying to use up batik scraps so many of the fabrics I chose tend to make this block look different. Mmmmmm...coconut cake!!! Jan[ATTACH=CONFIG]569206[/ATTACH]
