Hexagon and Compass

It's a long time since I've done hexagon flower,

however, I made one this morning for the 

Flower garden border.

I'm trying to keep it not to much, still not very empty.

Maybe few more leaves.

A hand stitched Compass

I decided to join Esther Aliu along with other ladies doing 

"Love Entwined" 1790 Marriage Coverlet BOM.

This is the start, middle - Compass.

I'm going to use my stash.

Nevertheless one can always add to the stash.

Some French General fabric arrived this morning.

That is all for today.

Happy stitching

Wednesday flower

My flower garden is still growing.

I went to Iceland for ten days to visit my family, and made some flowers while traveling by cars and planes.

But the big pink one I did yesterday - Wednesday.

I also did some dyeing yesterday,

I needed more fabric for my Dear Jane, which is still growing but slowly.

I did Rust Dyeing too, but it is still curing, I will post picture later.

Have a nice day and God bless you all.

Six more Flowers

The weather has been very nice this weekend here in Lux.

 And as I'm not much in to gardening, I enjoyed  sitting outside in my garden (not in the sun, though)

doing some Flower Garden, they are really fun to make.

I have not still decided whether I appliqué on a background or piece them together.

I also basted a top and used Sharon´s  technique.

On her webside you can find all sorts of free classes which are very helpful.

Quilting is easy with this basting, you don't have to start in the middle, just start at the top or the bottom.

 I have used this technique twice before and it is perfect.

Happy quilting.

Tin and Hexagon

I went to OEQC in Veldhoven last week. It was really good. I got more of  "Den Haan & Wagenmakers" fabric for my Snowball-quilt and I also bought some fabric for my Hexies.

The show was great, the theme was "Rhythm" and next year the theme will be "Blues".

I hope it is the color blue not the feeling blue. Maybe both.

I went to Rotterdam as well and at the Tuesday Market I found this Tin,

I had to have it, I don't know what it is about Tins, they always speak to me and say "pick me".

One more hexy flower done. This beautiful fabric was sent to me from my Secret Pal.

Every month I get a package from her with beautiful fabrics.

Twice I have got "Marimekko" which is absolutely gorgeous.

Until next time, happy stitching

Hexagon

This is my first  Hexagon ever, - I made it yesterday and it will not be my last.

Last year I bought this plastic pattern from Clove, it is 1 3/4"

and it is so easy to use.

- But the content of the bag was only 30 pieces and that is not nearly enough,

- I should have bought more than one bag.  

Well,  if I ever come across this pattern again I will buy some more.

I might join a Hexagon club and make one flower a week. - I think about it.

That is all for now

Happy stitching

Crochet

I found a pattern of crochet Hexagon at Lionbrand under the Category: Crochet-along.

They really have lot of nice patterns for crochet and knitting.
I have always wanted to do a Hexagon quilt but it will have to wait until I have finished my DJ or CWB.
It is enough for me to have these two sewn by hand at the same time.

But I can crochet this Hexagon while I watch TV, I just have to get some more colours.
