Spelling Bee Sew Along: Week 40

Get back to school with our Spelling Bee Sew Along featuring the Spelling Bee Book! Can’t believe it but we are on the home stretch and last month of this quilt along with week 40!

The Spelling Bee Book is by Lori Holt of Bee in my Bonnet and features complete instructions for 100 letter, number, punctuation and picture blocks in two sizes plus 18 quilt projects!

This Sew Along will feature 88 of the blocks from the Spelling Bee Book! Lasting 44 weeks, our Sew Along will feature 2 blocks from the book each week. We are featuring the Number 8 and Number 9 blocks in the 40th week of the Spelling Bee Sew Along!

Number 8 block by Greg of Dogwood Studio

Greg made his large Number 8 block using Ella & Ollie by Fig Tree & Co. for Moda Fabrics and his small Number 8 block using Christmas Figs by Fig Tree Quilts for Moda Fabrics and Pepper & Flax by Corey Yoder for Moda Fabrics.

Number 9 block by Joanna of @cottonjo on Instagram

Joanna made her Number 9 block using  Bee Backgrounds by Lori Holt for Riley Blake Designs and French General and Battle Hymn by Barbara Brackman for Moda Fabrics.

We have a great group of 40 quilting bloggers joining us for each event. Each week, 2 of the 40 bloggers will be sharing their Spelling Bee blocks with you! Be sure to visit our bloggers for details on what they did with their Spelling Bee blocks! And check out #SpellingBeeSaturday on Instagram to keep up with the fun!
