I'm sure both bee quilts will be darling when they are done. Perhaps you'll link to the finished quilts, if those bee mates have blogs?<br /><br />Chicken Poop makes me giggle, too. I thought about it as I was piecing the chicken fabric on the back of my last little quilt!Louisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06306854459459257368noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2893619710941204763.post-83054269078042069462017-04-19T23:54:03.923+01:002017-04-19T23:54:03.923+01:00Yay!

I am going to get mine done this weekend. I didn't realize you disliked paper-piecing so much. I thought I would hate it and didn't give it a chance for ages, but once I finally did, I found that I like it. Not always, and I probably won't ever do a full quilt, but I like doing minis that way.Jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13942853868409355316noreply@blogger.com
