Insomnia Induced Colour Craze

What does a quilter do when they can't sleep??  


Produce slightly off colour  colour crazy blocks. 

 I couldn't sleep so I thought I would start my Free Bee Block for July. After seeing Lynne's spectacular block here.....I was all hyped up for this months block.....so I guess it's Lynne's fault that I'm up at 3:30 in the morning.


Maybe I'll like the colours better in daylight.....whoops that could be anytime soon.

    That's right, if in doubt, blame Lynne! That's what I do anyway :-) Like the block though, worth the sleepless night!

    It is so fun, I hope to make mine tomorrow. A nice new colourbox might have arrived yesterday by fedex here at the coast...

    Love the block. I've been so tempted to quilt when I can't sleep but then I know it will just keep me up longer. Way too stimulating for my brain. Maybe next time I'll try sewing instead of reading.

    You handle sleeplessness extremely well, judging by that glorious color combination and cutting & restructuring!

    I really like those colours together - and it's not the middle of the night! I design blocks in my sleepless moments,so glad it isn't just me.
