Brenda's Big B Birthday Bee

I'm having a big birthday soon, and I'd like to make a quilt of free-pieced Bs, (for Brenda's Big Birthday), with your help. I'm inviting you to make a capital B, any size, surrounded by a generous amount of background, so I can put together a liberated "B" quilt from my blogging friends. Even if you've never made a B before, give it a try. I'll even give you a hand if you click here.

I've started already, but there's room for about 45 more...

Get out some fun fabrics
or some text prints

or some quilty fabrics
 or some fun colours
or send me a message with your fabrics
I'd love some "B"irthday wishes from you.

Check out this page for a tutorial on how to make a B.

Deadline is April 6, 2011. Leave a comment and I'll email you my mailing address.
