Made a little bee pillow for an April birthday. We will just pretend it was 7 months early instead of 5 months late... Puppy approves!

As a fellow April birthday and an a working entomologist, I very much approve. They're lucky to have such a talented sewist for a friend!

Thank you! The bee placement on the pillow is a tiny bit off-center, and the antenna don’t line up perfectly... but the beauty of quilting is that no one seems to see your mistakes as much as you do!

That's ok, I made a lap quilt for a friend last year and it was 6 months early! or um.. late... depending on how you look at it!

So cute! Was it hard to do?

I did this in a long weekend- so not too hard. The pattern is listed as “intermediate” but it’s only the second foundation paper piece that I’ve done and I didn’t have to seam rip too often haha.

I havent done one yet although i sew and quilt. This would be a great starter piece before jumping into a whole quilt. For that matter this would be a cute quilt as well.

Yeah- foundation paper piecing isn’t hard... just a little bit of a logic puzzle trying to figure out the size/shape/orientation of each piece!

Ahhh, what is time anyway? All my handmade gifts are late/early too. It’s beautiful and they are lucky to have it!

At least with this one I got to write “happy beelated birthday” on the card! Haha

That is a beautiful bee. I love your work! The birthday person will bee bragging to everyone through next year! Great job.
