February Criss Cross Block

I can not believe that it is almost February and our bee is almost done!
I have had such a hard time trying to decide what I wanted to do for my month. It has been super cold here in South Dakota and with day time temps at -20 with out wind chill I have been dreaming of green grass, warm sunshine and picnics with my kiddos. So this month we will be making a fun bright block for me to make into a picnic quilt.
The block I choose is the Criss Cross Quilt block and we will be using Oh Cherry Oh fabric from a few years ago. I have been hoarding them for the perfect project! The pattern for the block can be found here


I will be sending enough fabric to make 1 block. I would like to keep the prints together in each corner as shown in the picture above. No need to trim your final block as I will trim them when I receive them all back. If you have any questions just let me know. Thank you so much and have fun!! Also if you are waiting for a block from me they will be sent with your fabric this weekend. Sorry for the delay!!!!

  2. So pretty! Please tell me about the "bee." I am not up to speed. By the way, all my grandparents lived in North Dakota, so sort of in your neck of the woods.
