4 x 5 Bee

I managed to get my blocks made and sent out for the 4 x 5 bee.  I was only one day late (needed a Saturday to get to the post office).

These blocks were a challenge to make.  Once I got the pattern down, they weren’t complicated, just time consuming.  Right now, time is something I don’t have in abundance.  I blogged about the paper piecing process here. Once I got the process down, each block probably took about 1.5 hours to complete.  However, with a toddler, that becomes little spurts of time here and there.

I still have the 3 x 6 bee blocks to finish as well as two other September bees to start and finish.  I’m a bit behind.  How do moms manage full-time work and a toddler at home?
