Megan took a break over the summer, but {Sew} Modern Monday is back and I'm excited to have something really cool to show this week.
This is a bee block that I made for Charlotte, of the Twelfth Zodiac blog. I am participating in my first online bee, and it has been a lot of fun so far. Just having the chance to try blocks that I normally wouldn't try, and fabric combinations/colour choices that I normally wouldn't choose. This block is a perfect example. I wouldn't naturally put green with the pinks and purples like Charlotte did, but I love the combination now that the block is finished!! Once again, as I've said before, I am glad that there are people out there who have colour sense like Charlotte does whom I can learn from!

I love the modern colours you have used! Online bees are fun! And take us out of our comfort zones!
That's a cool block! I'd love to participate in a bee, but I'm not sure how to find one. It seems like by the time I hear about them, they're full. It would be awesome to try out new things without having to commit to a whole quilt.
I'm hoping to get to my block today -- yours looks great, Heather!
wow - I saw this over on the linky - it is very beautiful!!
neat block! online bees are fun, i'm in my first also.
That is a great block, Heather! Glad you are enjoying your first bee!
That is a great block! Love those colors!
I agree with you in this. The bees are a great way to try new color combinations and techniques. I don't always love the projects at first but after having worked though them I have usually changed my mind :)
Oooh! It's really cool!

This is a very cool block design. I also really like this color combo. :)
I completely agree. As I was doing the block, I kept thinking I didn't like it. By the time it was done, I loved everything about it! Have you decided on your block yet?
Cool block. Great colours!
