November Layout


So, I was playing around in the very high-tech program, Paint, to try and come up with a layout for my November bee blocks. 8 of 11 have been posted on the Flickr group so far, and I cannot wait to see the rest. I am planning on making one of my own, to round out the number to 12.

My thoughts are as follows: blocks with white signature blocks and blocks with lilac signature blocks will alternate. I will be sashing the blocks in solid white. The signature blocks will be on green patterned backgrounds. The purple corners I'm not sure about. I just put the squares in there as spacers, but kind of like the idea of having some purple in the sashing, either solid or patterns.

Can't wait to get the rest of the blocks and start putting this puppy together. I think I'm going to try QAYG, so my poor sewing machine doesn't die when I attempt to quilt my very first twin sized quilt.
