I was WAY behind on my Bee Blocks. I was sewing up until I left on Wednesday.

I timed my bee blocks since I was so short on time, just to see... Each one took me 40 minutes. That seems like a lot for a simple square in square block! What do you guys think? How long do your bee blocks usually take and would you say that you are a fast or slow sewer? I guess I think I'm slow!
I'm super slow when I make log cabins, it's even worse with the wonky. So I don't think it's just you (and I'm sure it would take me longer, lol). But they all look great!
ReplyDeleteoh my gosh, they all look so good!
ReplyDeleteI really want to make some of those Nittany blocks (the X ones)... so cute.
And 40 minutes sounds about right to me unfortunately!
Your blocks look great!
ReplyDeleteI'm a slow sewer. Like, the slowest ever. I did double-duty in the 3x6 bee for the second quarter, and did super-scrappy blocks for both of my hives. Took me the better part of two weekends to churn out 12 blocks! All well worth it, though--love that bee!
I'm way slower than you- I love all the ones you made- my hardest is getting started and then (not) ripping out!
ReplyDelete40 minutes sounds pretty quick for me! I had one bee block take me 3 hours! That seemed like a lot for a bee block, but I am a super slow sewist.
ReplyDeleteHope you are having fun!
