I have done beehives and swaps but last year I signed up for too many. You remember the Bonnie and Camille beehives- times two. Plus Lizzy House, C+S, AMH, a few more B&C swaps and a dozen other choices last year! Thanks heavens I didn’t join every single one. Trust me there was a lot of temptation, but I tried to be realistic about my life and abilities. So I joined just enough to cause me … STRESS. :)
Now we are at the end of May and my friend Denise and I were talking how we want to do something… Ay yai yai! (How do you spell crazy sounds?!)
I have been making Dwell blocks and almost have enough for a quilt. But… it would be so much more fun with friends!!! Want to join Denise and I and make some Dwell blocks?

Update: I just learned there was a correction to one of the Dwell houses. Here is the correction:
Page 64 – Block assembly instructions for House C
Step 1 says to cut 1 piece 3 1/2″ x 9 1/2″ for the header; it should be 3″ x 9 1/2″.
