Bee Patriotic Sew Along - Week Three!!

Hello there! 

Welcome to Week Three of the 

Bee Patriotic Sew Along

For this sew along we are

sewing patriotic things from the 

Bee Patriotic Bundle

or of course you can use 

fabric from your stash:)

Grab your book

VINTAGE CHRISTMAS 

and let's do 

three more blocks this week.

This sew along will be 

easy to follow...

simply sew directly from the book!

You can make your blocks in the

 exact same prints that I did 

by of course looking at each 

block photo for placement 

or you can 

"bee the boss of your own quilt"

 and switch it up!

CLICK HERE

to download the schedule of what 

blocks that we are sewing

each week...

as well as the 

cutting guide for the 

smaller quilt 

setting if you are making the 6" Blocks.

(12" Block setting is already in the book)

Okay ...let's do this!!

Our first block is 

REINDEER HOOVES BLOCK

on page 80

This is an easy peasy block

 and uses all four colors...

it's one of my favorites because it 

always looks good with any color combinations:)

Next up is the 

SHINE BLOCK

on page 81 of the book.

This is another classic that 

looks great in any colors.

I love the fact that if you made an

 entire quilt with these that there 

would be a secondary block formed 

within the design because of the

 easy corner triangles on the outside.

Our last block is 

SNOWFLAKE BLOCK

on page 83 of the 

Vintage Christmas Book.

This is supposed to be a snowflake 

of course but just like the other

 star blocks it turns into

 fireworks for summer!

I just love each and every block 

in this quilt and I hope that you are

having a fun time putting yours together:)

I have told you about a few more

 projects that I made previously

 in preparation for this sew along....

and now it's time to begin sharing 

them with you.

I'm super excited to first share with you

 a tutorial that I did for this sew along

 and I thought that I would do it

 as a video and put it on my new 

YouTube Channel

It's a tutorial for my super cute 

and super easy Scalloped Bunting:)

I made one first and hung it

 over the design wall in my studio.

I had to keep taking it down for 

certain pictures and also some filming

 so that it wouldn't be revealed too soon!

I made another one during the 

video tutorial because I want to use 

it outside on my patio for the

 4th of July and other summertime get togethers....

and you can never have too much bunting!

I like to use it for every holiday 

and it's fun to make them 

in each holiday colors.

CLICK HERE

to watch the tutorial....

I hope you enjoy it as well as my channel.

I'll be doing a lot more tutorials

 on there besides the few that I have

 started out with ...

so give me a follow there

 by subscribing if you would

 like to know when I have filmed more:)

And of course I used the

 Bee Patriotic Bundle

 to make my buntings...

I used 6 different prints 

from all four color ways.

I really love how all 

of the prints and colors go together:)

Here is a full shot reveal of what 

it looks like hanging from my curtain rod.

Buntings also look adorable 

hanging above a quilt!

I'm also giving you another 

sneak peek in this photo...

next week during week four 

of our sew along

 I will have a step by step tutorial

 for my Bee Patriotic Table Runner...YaY!!

Thanks sew much for joining me this week 

and I'll be right back here 

next Monday with the last three blocks...

the table runner tutorial...

 plus one more!
