A Bee Block and a QAL

I'm the tiniest bit behind for my Sew Bee Joyful group.

Thankfully we had two months to do Feb. block so I'm not *actually* late. I'm just cutting it close.

I took this picture before I trimmed that extra bit off the bottom. Seems like I cut one of my sets of blue 1/4" too big.


On the QAL front I've been looking at the Cosmic Burst QAL at Distant Pickles ever since it was announced.
I tore my entire stash apart looking for fabrics.
I couldn't make any decision.

Enter this bundle I've been lusting after for a week and had no justifiable reason to purchase:
Monsterz - Cloud 9 Fabrics

Today my brain suddenly merged the two.
And I got to coloring on the awesome coloring sheet provided for the QAL to see if it could work:

I'll pick 3 & 4 when the fabrics actually get here. I'm not sure if I want to use some of the monster FQs or the mountains. 

Seeing as how I've been fabric shopping crazy lately, I took some time to make a list of all the projects I have going on right now. (It'll also help me get WiP Weds. back into my roundup format) 

...I'm not taking a photo of that list. It's all scribbly. 

Eleven current projects.

11.

I'm trying to get two of them finished in a week as sewing payment for the fabric influx. 
Before that FQ bundle arrives. 

The bee block was half of one (March is the other half) so that's a good start at least.

  2. I love that bundle, can't wait to see how your plan works out!

    I just counted, I have 16 projects that I could bring myself to write down, and I have another 4 lurking in the background that I can't bring myself to add to a list yet!!!
