Yesterday I popped into GJ's for their 25% sale.
I generally like to buy my wadding when they have a sale but I just couldn't commit to which type to buy so I wandered around the shop looking at all the loveliness when I spied a gorgeous green fabric. (ok it had a couple of friends with it) The extra off white is for my stitching stash.
I had a flash of inspiration-perhaps this would be a great fabric to make stepping stones for my novelty hexie flowers?
I really like the colour and had a play with the flowers on the fabric this morning.
Would love some feedback...
cheers

ps I have reactivated word verification as I have been having some spam referral issues. Anthea (from Hibiscus stitches) has been investigating and one of the websites she linked to suggested that word verification may help stop the spammers. If it doesn't make any difference I will switch it off again.
Hope this doesn't put anyone off commenting.....

It is gorgeous and works well with the hexies. So sorry to hear that you have been getting spam - annoying!
ReplyDeleteLove the green for the stepping stones :) Barb.
ReplyDeleteHello Marina,
ReplyDeleteI think the chosen fabric is perfect and how lucky that your chosen fabric had some friends that were willing to come too.
Happy sewing.

Hi there,
ReplyDeletedo loike the green .How are you attaching hexies or are you making green ones for in between?
I'm liking those greens and I'm very much liking that particular green against the hexie flowers, they just pop ...
ReplyDeleteI think the green looks great, just like a garden!
ReplyDeleteYes that is a lovely green fabric, just what Sue said it look's like a Garden.
ReplyDeleteLove the greens and the hexies look great on it too. You have a beautiful collection of hexies too. I don't get spam comments but I choose to moderate comments instead so they don't get posted unless I have selected them. Spam is a pain but I have also noticed that the film blog thing Anthea mentioned has also been on my blog but not as many hits as she has had from them.
ReplyDeleteThe hexie flowers look fabulous against your green fabric.....very pretty.
ReplyDeleteI love it as well....looks amazing...
ReplyDeleteLove the green. It will be beautiful.
ReplyDeleteHugs xx
I think the green really works as a background. It seems to go with all the colours in the hexies......just like grass goes with flowers in the garden. I hope you bought enough!
ReplyDeletei love the green as your back ground Marina,lovely buys there,i think you will find no difference with the word thing as i was getting them before i turned mine off,but maybe it might work for you,good luck.
ReplyDeleteNot long till we see each other again.xx
Gorgeous green you have chosen there. Looks lovely both with its friends and with your novelty flowers.

Beautiful new fabrics. Your hexie quilt is going to be gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteI think the green is perfect. It will look like a flower garden for sure.
ReplyDeleteThe green looks great with the hexies. Heard there were big queues at GJs.
ReplyDeleteReally like the green that you have picked. You know I am not a "green" person but the hexies look great on it. You certainly have a lot.

ReplyDeleteLove the green - your hexies look really good!
ReplyDeleteThe green looks super - go for it! Have enjoyed catching up with your blog and the lovely work you have been doing.The wordy thing is not a problem.
ReplyDeleteIt was destiny that made you go to the sale and find that fabric. It was meant to be. I just love seeing your fussy cut hexes. It will be a superb quilt.
