Well I’m back home from my whistle stop hop across the Irish Sea and back!
I will have pictures to show for it tomorrow, but in the meantime, it is MARCH! Which means a new block of the month for Bee Blessed.
Yes, Pippi Longstocking is making a return visit. I designed this block 2 years ago and Bee Blessed members and contributors did a sterling job making Pippi and Wonky House blocks. This quilt was gifted to a teenage girl struggling with M.E.
Sarah had the genius idea of alternating February’s heart blocks with Pippi blocks, which I think will make one beautiful and special quilt.
I know some of you are a bit nervous about this block and having a go at improv piecing! But all I would say is, have a go anyway and see what happens! Nothing ventured, nothing gained! Grasp the Nettle! Carpe Diem! etc. etc. !
You can find Sarah’s instructions here and the link to the tutorial is here. Thank you for getting your big girl pants on and having a go at Pippi!
