bee-utiful



Look at the beautiful fabric one of my bee-buddies, Rachael, brought back from St. Barts. Yesterday we had our bee lunch and she gave each of us a pack of "St. Bart's" quarters. It was fun hearing about her search for fabric on the island...there was only one fabric shop and they had trouble understanding her quest for quilt fabric...until she described what she wanted and they said "oh, patchwork!"...The fabric is sold in 62" widths by the meter. It will be fun to see what each of us does with the fabric.

That was very nice of her to do that for each of you. I love these fabrics!!! Maybe you can make a table topper for one of the tables in your living room? I think those fabrics would look great there...or even for your dining room table or the little table in your kitchen.
