Back in early November, I shared a quick project I was making for a neighbor who wanted a gift for a friend who keeps bees.
She wanted me to keep it simple and relatively small. I pulled out a panel I had that was filled with some fun bee panels and she picked a couple she liked.
I then went to my scraps and found some coordinating bits that I cut to 2.5" square.
I found a nice gray fabric for the backing and quilted it in a grid in a serpentine stitch. I used a black fabric for the binding to match the frames around the panels.
My neighbor loved it and has already taken delivery of it. I am glad I was able to use some of my exisitng stash to make something special for someone.
I know a few readers said they have the same panel. I still have quite a bit of it left and may make a few more like this in the future. This was definitely a quick and rewarding little project!
Happy December everyone!

I like that, I know I have seen that panel on someone else's blog but don't remember where - it is cute
What a sweet finish! How great to use some stash in the process as well. Wow. . .no grass will ever have a chance to grow under your feet! You completed this project so quickly! Well done!
Hooray for fast and fun finishes (and for having something just right for a specific request. Happy December to you, too!
Oh what an adorable piece. You the perfect fabrics to accompany the panel.
What a lovely piece to make for your neighbour to gift, so cute.
It's wonderful and sounds like a perfect fit as a gift too.
That will BEE a very sweet gift for your neighbor's friend, Cynthia, and bonus points for using up some scraps and stash fabrics on the project!
Lovely finish! And perfect for a beekeeper!
I like that, and appreciate that your machine will do a serpentine stitch... mine is an older model or just does not have that option.
