Queen Bee Doorstop

September 8, 2019 By A Spoonful of Sugar - 2 Comments

Queen Bee fabric range by Devonstone Collection features bees, hives, hexagons, stripes, and crowns. The black, grey, and yellow colour palette is a break from my usual fabric choice. The fabric range includes a panel of large bees. As soon as I spotted this feature print, I knew it was perfectly sized for my Contempo Doorstop pattern. It works so well on the front of my Contempo Doorstop.

With spring finally here, we will be opening our windows and doors more. We live a short walk from the ocean. Doorstops are perfect for keeping doors open during our strong afternoon sea breeze.

The Contempo Doorstop PDF Sewing Pattern is an easy, beginner friendly design. This pattern is perfect for showcasing different fabrics from a fabric range. You can mix/match the prints on the sides, top, and bottom. I can’t resist the cute bees and hives in the Queen Bee range.

These doorstop make cute gifts. My daughter and her fiance are currently building their first home – this will be perfect for their new home.

Queen Bee Fabric by Devonstone Collection, will be released in October. They have solids that coordinate perfectly in shades of cream, butter yellow, grey, charcoal, and black. Head to our Etsy store for our Contempo Doorstop PDF Sewing Pattern.

For more doorstop inspiration, check our our Contempo Doorstop and our Reel Time Doorstop.

Disclaimer: Thanks to Two Green Zebras for providing the fabric used in this project.
