SOMETHING'S ABUZZ: AGF version (Large Throw)
This is an original version I made for Love Patchwork & Quilting Magazine and it was featured in last year. There were no cornerstones and also the sashing was a little narrow.
I didn't add this original version to the instructions but if you are interested in making it, refer to the cutting instructions below. But please note that you still need to purchase the pattern (Digital / Paper) to make the bee blocks.
