hexie update

Hexagons have been my mission over the last few days. I traced a sheet of iron ons and sorted some fabrics into groups of seven to make more flowers. I will have around 50 flowers when they are all finished. I think I may even get another charm pack to make up some more. Talk about getting carried away!  I will just keep adding till I am sick of them. I was going to make this one small and then make a 'proper' one in selected fabrics but I think I will keep going with this one.
The pieced hexagons are growing quite nicely too but it can get a little monotonous just sewing the cream ones on. I like the srappiness of the different fabrics and it has cleared out a lot of small pieces of fabric that I had in my stash. The only fabric I have had to buy is some cream fabric to keep me going but even most of that was off cuts from stitcheries I have done.
Still loving the hexagons......

(the pieced ones so far...)
Hope your weekend has been a good one.

  3. Your flowers are looking very pretty - I like how they gain definition with the cream round.

hello

 Time is getting away from me it would be lovely to be able to slow it down. Crafting inspiration seems to be lacking as I try to finish off...
