Bee Blocks...

So, I joined a Wonky Quilting Bee a while ago and I have been having a lot of fun making Wonky blocks.

The first month (April) was for Jacey.  She wanted spiral log cabin blocks.  I had a lot of fun with these.  I used the white on this block to do a spiral out.  As it was coming together I loved how the pinks and purples were marrying together so I went easy on the orange.  I loved the sugar pop fabric too.  so so so cute!

 obviously more orange in this block, it sings ORANGE to me.  I like it.

 Melissa wanted Wonky houses and trees for her month (May).  I struggled with these a bit.  It felt good to be stretching myself but I did feel a bit out of my zone...

I feel like this one was a bit of a fail... the tree does not sing for me. i'm thinking about giving this a go for her instead...

  I was having so much fun with the houses I started another but ran out of white before I was able to finish it up.  

With the fabric that was left over I whipped her up a little surprise.  

 above is the front, and below is the back... 

they look like two completely different pouches.  

hope she likes them.

June is Carries month.  she wants Wonky Words... 

I am a little nervous but I am really enjoying stretching my skills...

P.S.  I got a new sewing machine!  Hoooray!  

I will post all about my misadventures of the last two weeks post haste!
