May's Block!


This whole quilting bee thing is so much fun! I have been able to try new things that I might not try as a whole quilt. I have been wanting to try zig zags, I used this tutorial from Sometimes Crafter, but I pieced the blocks together using the alternate piecing method she links to.
This block is for Mommymae, she is making her 3 year old son a quilt with her blocks.
I had so much fun appliqueing the robot, I mostly do little girl stuff, and I LOVED the colors and fabrics she sent! You can check out what's going on at A Notion or Two here!
