I am so excited! I received my very first bee package today for
Bee Europa 2012/2013! It has instructions, an example picture, pattern bits, fabrics and a pack of needles. How cool is that!? First up is Cara from
Pink Stitches who has really good taste in fabrics - look at these beauties! I'm not normally a pink fabric person but these fabrics all together are lovely, aren't they!?

So, looks like I have another project to add to my ever-growing WiP list!! Not complaining though - I get to make a
Rocky Road to Kansas quilt block [tutorial by
Fresh Lemons] which I have never made before so I get to try something new. This is a paper pieced block which is also new to me so I can't wait to make this one and try lots of new things! I am still pondering what my own bee month will be - I have two things I am drawn to but I have until July to decide. Thankfully!
Anyways, here is an abridged version of my WiP list:
Current:

~Sew into Solids - 6 blocks completed, 3 to more to make to catch up
~Zakka Itty Bitty magnets - just need to stitch closed DONE
Must do ASAP:
~Fat Quarterly Retreat Swap items - 5 test sample items completed but
final decision/actual swapping items not completed!
~Mod Sampler quilt - to be quilted
~Green-grey-teal-turquoise quilt - to be quilted
Planning stage:
~
Play Mini Quilt DONE
~LMQG Inspired by Art project (May Challenge for July)
I'll be linking up with
Freshly Pieced WiP Wednesday.
