I also managed to make a boatload of tiny HSTs (thank you, Thangles!) that I'm thinking of using to border my NY Beauty mini. Still pondering on this one...
Hope you all had a good weekend! Happy Monday!

A little weekend sewing
A little weekend sewing led to a finished bee block for Brooke. She's working on a Mod Mosaic quilt, and each of our blocks uses a gradated color scheme. My color was green, and I think I may have gone a bit overboard in both adding from my stash as well as in emphasizing the gradation. I had fun working on it, but I'm worried I didn't do a good job following direction here. I hope you like it, Brooke!! If not, I'll try again! :)
