Remember when I was planning to do the Caesar's Crown block for my Bee Mental 3 x 6 quilting bee? I never did figure out how to insert in those crazy pieces. I know now that getting templates for a block does not necessarily mean I'll get instructions for it too.
So I chose to keep my sanity and made these Crossed Canoe blocks instead. Straight cuts, simple piecing instructions, and awesome color choices from my fellow bee sisters made it fun and easy!

How does this bee work? I know you mentioned fabrics from the other participants but your block choice. They look great!
these are really beautiful! love the color combos
beautiful blocks, I like the name too.
One favorite block that I have never tried, yet. Love how fresh it looks with your choice of fabric!

Love your blocks...they are just wonderful! I adore this pattern - crossed canoes. I recently finished one from the Material Obsession book...called The Stashbuster - it also is a crossed canoe block. Your color combinations are terrific...lots of movement!
sanity should always prevail when it comes to complicated piecing. these looks so great.
These are beautiful blocks! I love the vibrant colors!
I've always wanted to make a two colour quilt using this block - yours look beautiful and I think your decision to maintain sanity was a wise one!
The blocks are just beautiful!
