About We Bee Learning Beginner Block Bee

This will be a 12 month beginner block Bee. (You don’t have to be a beginner, but the blocks are going to be easy)
Open to international sewers
We will be using fabric from our own stash to make the blocks
All blocks will be 12.5x12.5 unfinished
There will be one bee leader each month. This person will pick a beginner block and on the first day of their month provide the rest of the group with instructions on how to piece it via blog post, email, flicker, or snail mail. They will also notify the group of what colour combo they want. You can be as specific or as vague as you want about colour choices.
By the last day of the each month the block requested will be mailed back to that month’s bee leader.
Each monthly bee leader will receive 11 blocks plus one that they will have to make on their own for a total of 12 blocks
At the end of 12 months each bee will have 12 completed blocks to turn into whatever they want. Also if you make an extra of each months block then you will be able to create a sampler quilt as well.

****I am sad to say that I think we may have to get a little stricter in our guidelines. All blocks should be in the mail by the last day of the month unless you have requested more time from the host (me..lol) Any blocks not already in transit one week after the due date will be deemed late at that time. If there has been no contact between the "late" person and me the host between the time the reminder notice goes out and the one week grace period that person will be given one final e-mail where they will have 24hrs to contact me or I will take that to mean they no longer want to be part of our group and I will find a replacement. *******
