I'm thrilled and amazed by the variety of Bs I'm getting for Brenda's Big Birthday Bee, both in the size and shape of the letters and in the fabrics Here's a recent sampling:
These are four smallish ones. Some people have wondered if their Bs are too big or too small. They're all perfect! From top left: D. Kitts, Heidi, Mrs. Moen, and Heidi again. Thanks for the pair, Heidi!
Bubbles and butterflies on top from Beryl, a blah blah blah B from Julie
Newspaper fabric with stories about the Titanic in a B from Terry, who is a faithful reader of the newspaper I write for, and fun spool fabric and dots from Rene
Tonya's fancy B in two text fabrics and birthday wishes from A R Baugh (sorry, you didn't give me your first name on your return address.)
And here's all the recent acquisitions. Don't see yours in there? My mail has been slow, since I get emails saying a B is in the mail and then it appears two weeks later. And if you still want to play along, I'm happy for more. leave me a comment and I'll send you my address.
I'm trying hard to keep the names attached to each block, but not all of you sent your blog address, so I'm missing some links.
I'm looking forward to putting this together in May, in time for my birthday at the end of the month.

great B's. i was worried that mine was stuck in the mail but I checked a previous post and saw that it arrived. Phew! Hope your dad is doing better!
Sorry about that Brenda. As I drove away from the post office I remembered that I had forgotten to include a note. As for the fabric, like I said, that literally fell off the shelf while I was looking for my fabric with actual bees on it (the insects, not letters). Naturally, while looking for something totally unrelated this weekend, I found the bees......I might have to make you another letter......
Glad the B made it, they all look wonderful together! Hope you get some playtime over Easter!
great B's! oh this is going to be a great quilt, can't wait to see you put all these B's together!

That's going to "bee" an amazing quilt! I put my b in the mail yesterday. I hope to see it at the Barnswallows show but I guess that is coming up too soon. Maybe next year's show.
gonna B an awesome quilt!!! lots of creativity on display.
My B was in a previous post...so I know it is there. I am loving this. It is fascinating seeing these B's together! When I won all the wonky trees from Block Lotto, I wrote the name of the person who sent it & where they were from, right on the block. I wanted to acknowledge the creator....so many different styles of trees.
This will B such a neat quilt!
Great collection. So much variety. Glad to see u received mine. Happy Easter.

Akkkk!!!! Has mine not arrived yet? After losing some quilt blocks in the mail once, I included my address and your address in the plastic bag with the letters, so I'm trusting you get it eventually. The ones you have are AWESOME!!
