Beehive Bedlam.

Beehive Bedlam is done, complete, finished.

Tadaa!

This little bundle of somebody else's left overs has become a happy little crib sized quilt.

The batting is yet another Franken Batt.

The backing is a reclaimed cotton sheet, in a very soft grey also rather appropriately looks like it has tiny white clover leaves all over it. 

The cute Busy Bee quilt design is from Urban Elementz, a chance find, that turned out perfectly.

Another lucky find was the fabric I purchased for the border and binding.

The cutest little bees. The golden yellow border draws out the tiny yellow bees in the beehive squares.

And here it is on my old rocking chair on the deck.

It's a very damp and grey day here, so no pictures in trees today, just a quick snap on the chair and another of the sodden grey sky and the bare trees, 

oh, and the bird feeder.

And then back indoors.

The birds have been very busy at the coconut, enjoying the fat balls I put out for them.

I only feed during the winter months.

Today it is sparrows who are visiting, what a quarrelsome bunch, so much noise, they take flight if I go near the window to try and snap a picture.

I'm off to work again today, but before I go, I have some new to me software to play with.

I scored a Copy of Electric Quilt 7 on a NZ Quilters facebook page. 

I got an email from EQ this morning confirming that the license is now mine and I can install on to my computer, so I'm off to play.

Does anybody else have this software?

Got any tips?
