Finished Quilts

care to join me?

Following yesterday's blog post and some of the lovely comments it has received, I am starting a new Bee!  *ducks head to miss biatch slap*  Hear me out.  This is a Bee with a difference...

here's the link to the Flickr Group

The rules of this bee are simple.  Join up as and when you want, plan to make something for yourself, something that you want to make... not for anyone else.... just made by you for you. A big thing or a small thing, it's up to you.  Do this as little or as often as you need to keep the sewing goddesses happy - a little bit of selfish sewing to redress the balance. If you'd like, we could have a linky party every couple of months or so (now I know how to do it!) and I'm thinking of a little giveaway now and then too.

So...care to join me?

    Me me me!! Although I've been very good and have only been in 1 bee in the last 9 months! And no swaps! I hated spending all that time making lovely stuff and then giving it away. Even my spouse was getting annoyed with it...

    Yep... BUT does making for magazines count if I get to keep the finished quilt when they're finished with it? ;) Also the money I make from selling the article goes straight into my fabric fund, that's me me me too right?

    Cos I gotta get all this stuff finished first.

    Sounds great! I am still in the honeymoon period of swapping...probably because I haven't anything yet (hoping to be pleasantly surprised) and I am in two bees (how did that happen?!)
