    I started doing the Honey Bee block at just the right time - my daughter gave me a beautifully embroidered piece about honey and bees. I decided to incorporate downsized (3") Honey Bee blocks on the four corners of this wall hanging. The "wings" were so tiny I had to fuse them in place and then zigzag around them with invisible thread.

    Lillian, I cannot believe you did 3" honey bee blocks. I am very impressed.

    I have a few favorites among these BOM, this is one of them. Although they may look a bit more like wasp or hornets than honey bees.
