Last year, the historian of our quilt guild hosted a block of the month. Each month she gave directions as to what needed to be included in each block such as "bugs for May" or "green for March." After I heard the first set of directions, I immediately decided that I would make a calendar quilt and try my hand at word play lettering.

"Calendar Quilt" |
The blocks were really fun to put together, but I really made some bad decisions on the setting. I guess I didn't plan very well when I chose the block colors because I had a really hard time putting everything together to make a cohesive quilt. Yikes! Oh well!
I pieced in a couple of orphan blocks into the teddy bear backing (which is always fun). I figure this quilt can hang around the house for a little while, but likely it will get donated at some point because I am just not too crazy about it. I'm sure that the right person to donate to will come about one of these days! Maybe a kindergarten class???
