Lindsay Conner was one of my bee mates (she blogs here at Lindsay Sews and Craft Buds). She suggested submitting a book proposal. And here is the result.
Lindsay did a wonderful job with this book. Whether you have wondered what bees are all about, would like to organize a bee, or just want to be a better bee member, the information is in this book.
I'm so happy to have been included in this group, and my quilt even made the cover--the second one from the bottom--it's called Neon Ninja Stars.
Besides all the information on bees, there are beautiful quilts in this book, with something for every skill level.
If you want to pick up your own copy, here are the details:
Book Title: Modern Bee—13 Quilts to Make with Friends

WOW! Congratulations on your inclusion in a book! Your Neon Ninja Stars is fabulous!
Love your quilt. In fact, I love all the quilts in this book. I'm currently working on a wall hanging - my first ever paper piecing project
Congratulations!! Love the Neon Ninja Stars and such a great name! I'm currently in two bees and learning a lot.
My 3 sisters & I have a kind of quilting bee. We live in 4 different states & keep connected through block swaps, round robins & we're planning on making a group quilt. Thanks.
Congratulations! Your quilt is fab. I'm in three bees right now and am perpetually behind...
My best friend and my daughter and I get together and quilt - its fun! I would love to join a bigger bee - the book looks great! thank you!
I just joined my first bee so this book would be helpful to me!
I am currently sewing lots of gifts to give at Christmas!
I have learned that I need to try this ...ASAP!
I've been eyeing up this book, I want to start a bee with my friends & I think it would be a great resource. Love your quilt!
Right now I'm working on a Jumbo Bowtie Quilt in autumn colors. I finished piecing the center this weekend, and now all that is left are the borders!!! Thanks for such a fun giveaway!
I've never been in a bee, but it's on my bucket list! Currently working on Christmas tree skirts for our 4 daughters ~ this is my first year giving quilty things, so I hope they turn out! Thanks for the chance ~ fingers crossed!
Congratulations!
I love Neon Ninja Stars!
I've just joined a new local quilt group so I'm hoping we can start a bee!
The book looks great, and I like your block! I am hand-piecing Green Tea and Sweet Beans by Jen Kingwell, and hand-quilting the Liberty Fields quilt from the book Material Obsession.
Great job! The book looks wonderful. Thanks for the giveaway!
What a beautiful quilt! I am working on a Christmas quilt right now, trying to get a jump on the holiday sewing.
No, I've never been in a bee but sounds like a fun time with quilting friends! I'm working on my local quilt shop's block of the month right now, and that's about it - one block a month. I need to get busy on something else!
Congratulations on your Neon Ninja Star's inclusion, Cindy!
I love that so many of my favorite bloggers had a part in this book - so creative and inspiring!! Congrats and thanks for the chance to win!
One of the nicest people I know invited me to join a bee called Mid-Century Modern and it has been so much fun!!!!
AWESOME! Thanks for a great giveaway! I'm working on a lap quilt at the moment!
i am new to sewing so definitely no quilting bee yet.....maybe some day.
i am currently working on a small quilted pet mat - my first attempt at "quilting".
Congratulations! I have been hesitant about joining a bee due to the time commitment. Maybe someday.
Bought this book the minute it landed in the shop. If I win, I will give away my copy. Today, I am sewing your blocks : )
AWESOME Cindy!!!!!!! How exciting and wonderful quilt!!! Miss you! :-)
I don't belong to a bee, but I love reading the blogs about them! I'm currently working on a floor quilt for a mom who is expecting triplets.
tstanulis@mac.com
This book looks Awesome!!! Have never belonged to a Bee.....know would be such fun tho!!
Kinda new to quilting...so easy is my Motto..lol I just finished a 1/2 Squares Triangles Quilt, and starting a D9P now......
I'm currently sewing my daughter's Halloween costume. The book looks so fabulous!
I love your quilt that was in the book, I'm a sucker for bright happy colors! I'm just finishing up a needlebook for a swap and several bee blocks. Next up is to finish a throw quilt for my brother-in-law.
I'm currently sewing a sweets themed quilt for a single size bed
yeyioasis@yahoo.com.ar
When life settles down a bit, I'm looking forward to joining a bee. Thanks for the chance.
No, I don't belong to a bee, but it could be lots of fun. I love your quilt!! I need to get busy with my stash and make something wonderful, too!
I'm in a local bee that is still going on and I just finished another local bee. Now just to get my tops together and quilted.
I have never participated in a bee, not sure what who how... and omg... deadlines! but i am getting a bit more confident and would love to try one.
I have never been in a quilting bee before but it sounds like so much fun! I am working on a picture quilt for a friend right now.
I was in a quilting bee with the church a long time ago, but now I'm in a family one. My daughter and two grand daughters, ages 8 and 12. We're making couch pillows, kids TV quilts, and a surprise for momma (my daughter).
Our Quilting Bee is called La Tela Viajera and its based in Spain. We started off as a fabric swapping group on FB but it has grown into something wonderful! We started in October and we are sooo excited! I would love to win the ebook so we can do a Spanish version of the quilts in it!
Amazing and so proud of you! The book looks fun and would love to read through it. I am motivated by groups doing stuff together so a quilting bee would be my "cup of tea"! I have aspirations to do more sewing and quilting in my future retirement.
Awesome!! I am currently working on an english paper piecing project :-) its a small wall hanging / table runner
Congrats! I'm finishing up a crib set, just have binding on the quilt left :)
so exciting, can't wait to get my hands on a copy! Congrats!
No quilting bee yet but am hoping to be in one this winter. Congrats on the book. Can hardly wait to see it.
Congratulations! Your quilt feels so lively and fun. I love it! Thanks for the chance to win a copy of this book.
Love your quilt!!! Congrats on the great book too :) My bee is getting ready to do a row quilt in 2014.
You book looks great! I do not have a bee that I am in-- but I would love to! Right now I am working on an ISpy quilt that will be a gift for my nephew.
I am currently in three bees and love my Redbird gals the most. Of course they are my guild friends, so it's much easier to get to know them when you see them monthly. We are about to start our third year as a bee and next year are going to make traveling quilts.
This book looks awesome. I've always wanted to be in a bee. Hopefully soon. Im working on a vintage sheet quilt for my guilds challenge quilt this year.
I do not want to be included in the give-a-way, but I did want to say CONGRATULATIONS! :)
I have yet to be part of an official 'bee'! Sounds like a lot of fun. Congratulations of your part in this new book!!
Awesome bee, and awesome quilt! Congrats to you all :o)
I've never participated in a bee, virtual or otherwise. I guess I'm not much of a joiner. Currently, I'm finishing a quilt for my sister. I have to assemble the back yet before I can get to the real work. Your quilt looks neat, and I love the name.
No need to enter me into the giveaway. I hardly ever have time to sew, and the last sewing bee I tried was kind of a bust. I just wanted to say congrats to you! Cool quilt.
I meet with a group once a week and we work on charity projects once a month. I have learned a lot from the ladies in this group and look forward to it each week. I love your star quilt. Thanks for the chance to win a copy of the book.
I haven't had the privilege of participating in a quilting bee, but I do quilt. Right now I am finishing up a quilt for my daughter, and starting one for my aunt. I would love to win this book!
I've got a couple of great quilts from being in bees - I'm also currently in a do.good stitches bee with a wonderful and chatty group of aussie girls :)
I'm currently sewing some drawstring bags. Looks like a great book.
Congrats Miss Cindy! Your quilt is fabulous, as are you! And thanks for your listening ear tonight :)
E.
Congratulations Cindy, what a brilliant book to be part of. I have one block to make and will then have finished my third Bee. The Bees have been fun and have really pushed me to try things that I would never have tried. I can definitely recommend joining a Bee.
Congratulations Cindy! Since I injured my back in September I haven't been sewing at all.:( I would live to win the book and start a new quilt when I am better.
Congrats on being published! I'm currently sewing a Halloween quilt... and I have to finish it soon!
Congrats on having your quilt in a book...yay! Love the book... have never been in a bee before, but it sounds super fun! Currently sewing Halloween costumes for the kids. Thanks.
I would love to have a copy of this book! I am currently working on an x and + quilt.
I have never been part of a bee but there is a group of ladies that meets at the library (when I am at work) to work on handcrafts. Sounds like it might be fun. kcannon@anwsu.org
I have not been part of a bee, but the blog posts and book have made me very interested. I am working on a French braid wall hanging.
I am trying yo get a Halloween quilt finished...hopefully I will get it done in time to curl up with after trick-or-treating this year!
Congratulations! It looks fantastic.
I'm working on a tablerunner in fall colors (finally put away my aqua & pink! ;) ).
What a fantastic job of you and your beemates.
Im in groups now doing more than just a blick. It's been fantastic
I am so lucky to be part of Brit Bee which brought together twelve strangers and created the best if friends, all of whom have met face to face now. We are entering round three and starting medallion quilts to the same pattern original to us, with everyone adding part of the pattern to each members quilt top. It will be wonderful to see twelve quilts made the same but in different palettes with different central stars in just over a years time. Getting into a good bee is the best experience ever! Thanks for the chance to win.
I am not a member of a quilting bee. But I did participate in a "birthday block" once. I was actually very disappointed. The blocks (pattern + fabric) that I supplied the members were either not done, lost, or the seam allowance were so off I couldn't use them. Not sure I will try that again!!
I don't have a Bee, but I'd like to get involved in one!
My local guild is trying to get a couple of bees off the ground, but it's a struggle I can't wait to read the tips in the book about getting a bee that's a good fit!
I've had my eye on this book!! I'm currently in a quilt group participating in a round robin. It has been so much fun!
I am currently sewing a Halloween table runner - hope to finish it today so that I have a few weeks to enjoy it. Thanks for the give away!
That's is so great that your quilt ended up in a book! I am currently straight line quilting my first queen size quilt. It has been a LONG process because I have very little sewing time. And to give myself a break from that project I'm also working on 2 others. I'm
I really like the back of Neon Ninja Stars, it inspires me to create my current quilt back as exciting as the front. Nice work and blog tour.
The book and blocks inspires to get some friends together and do a community / bee project. Have not yet joined a Bee since I feel a bit intimidated and that my sewing is not good enough... Thanks for a chance!

I'm not part of a quilting bee, but I recently found out that there is a modern quilt guild right in my town. So I am planning to check them out at their next meeting. Hopefully you can get my email address from my being logged into Google. I just don't know how these things work. Thanks.
I'm excited to pick up your book. My LQS, Intrepid Thread, has it in stock, and it is through Julie's post that I learned about it. I've never done a quilting bee, but it looks fun. I currently have five projects going, and I need to finish three of them by Christmas. Eek! Thanks for the giveaway, my fingers are crossed!
I have never been part of a bee. As a newbie quilter I've been learning from blogs and books. This book would make a welcome addition to my new hobby!
I have never been part of a Quilting Bee before, but love seeing all of the things that people are doing for their Bee's. I love this book from what I can tell it gives you some info. about Quilting Bee's as well as some great patterns. I currently have several WIP that I need to get finished before I start something new.
I'm currently in the 3x6 bee, working on a blue & white sampler quilt :)

Love it Cindy and the back is fantastic! Congrats on the book. Thanks to you I'm in the midst of my first bee and have joined another. So fun meeting new people and getting to know them.
I'm in a few online bees, and recently just joined one with my mom. I love spending one or two Sundays a month at her place out in the woods, sewing up a storm and working on bee blocks together. It's pretty terrific.
Congrats on your gorgeous quilt! Love the solids.
I recently joined the RI Modern Quilt Guild and we're going to start some bees, round robins, etc. So exciting!

I do not belong to a bee, I quilt with my daughter. I am working on some baby quotes.
I've never been part of a bee, but I enjoyed spending time with my aunt and her group growing up. I spent summers with her and it was fascinating seeing them work together. I am currently making my daughter's first Halloween costume. So much fun! Thanks for hosting! :) mfrapp_83 [at] yahoo [dot] com

I've never been part of a quilting bee so far. Currently I hand quilting one of my UFO quilt. Hope to finish by December.
I sew mostly two nights a week at Guild initiated open sewing nights. There is a core of regulars both night, but new people add themselves regularly.
I just handed out bee block packages, so excited to see what everyone puts toether.
Very cool! I'm so pleased for you!

Not in a bee yet, but I might have to start one. This is a crazy fun idea.
Thanks for the opportunity to get this wonderful book. I would love to be part of a quilting bee.
Wow....great work on Ninja Stars. Congratulations! I've been working on halloween costumes this week. No quilting for me.
Great quilt. I would love to take part in a bee one day.
I have been working on small projects, I am a beginner, to make my pieces look better once finished.
I'm working on my very first full size quilt!
Woohoo! I missed the giveaway deadline but I was going to get a copy of this book anyway. My wonderful friend Cindy has a quilt in it.... Congrats!
I've loved being part of a bee this year - it's awesome to try blocks and colours that aren't your style but help you learn new skills and break out of your comfort zone!
