Last week I shared that school was officially back in session in my world and now more than ever, I feel like my family is a buzz of activity! From Cross Country meets to late-night homework sessions, it’s go-time. That’s why this week Blocks 2 Quilt design is the Honeybee Hive quilt block.
With the fall season quickly approaching, things here at the studio are a buzz of activity. I am stitching up a storm working on secret projects for publication and getting things ready for the Sew Scrappy Retreat in October.
Honeybee Hive Quilt Block Details
The Honeybee Hive quilt block is available in 2 different finished sizes.
- 6″ x 6″ (15.2 x 15.2 cm)

Materials & Tool Supply List:
- Assorted Scraps: Red, Green, Brown, & Background Prints

The simple design and patchwork construction of this block make it perfect for the beginner quilter and fun for auditioning scraps.
This week you can add the Honeybee Hive quilt block pattern to your library for free after that it will be available for sale in the shop.
Pair the Honeybee Hive quilt block with the Bumblebee or even the Zinnia Flowers for a spectacular quilt design. So, I’m sure whatever fabrics you stitch up will look amazing!

Comments & Reviews
Hello. I am making a baby quilt to donate to Abbigail Cowbrough Foundation. She was pilot in the Canadian Armed Forces and was killed in a hellicoptor accident. Her foundation is asking quilters to make quilts that will be donated in her name. She loved to quilt and loved bees. I would like to the centre of the quilt to feature your bee hive pattern. I am a novice quilter and making my own patterns is not quite there yet. I would ask your permission to use the pattern and I would gladly send you a copy of the finished quilt. Thank you in advance.
