… The busy, getting-bees-and-BOMs-and-QALs-done-before-the-end-of-the-month time of the month! Especially given the wet and windy weather here this week. Perfect for bunkering down for sewing! This is the first of 4 butterfly blocks for QCA Bee #5. Tracy has asked for 6″ finished butterfly blocks to make a quilt for her daughter. She will be embroidering […]
