Ohhh gee whiz, the colours on this blog entry are nothing like the real thing.
I had the most divine little pack of charm squares, all about 7" square. I didn't know what to do with them so I just sashed them together with some pink homespun and it looks really really pretty. Though you'd not know it from these photos.
It still needs a border, and as luck would have it, despite having enough fabric to open a fabric shop or two, I don't have the right colour to use. So I'm going to have to order some. I'm thinking a wide-ish border all around, and then perhaps some pinky florally applique around the outer edge.
I'll wait and see when the fabric comes in.
And because I have many hours to spare sitting and waiting for ballet lessons to finish I made another hexie! They are very, very delicious!
I haven't decided what to do with them but I do enjoy making them, I really do.
Hope you've had a great weekend, happy quilting!
I'm quite addicted to hexies, too. It takes a lot of willpower to keep them assigned as my the road trip project. I just hate when my photos don't show the colors accurately. Grrr Your quilt is so pretty ... and I can't wait to see it with the additional border and applique.
ReplyDeleteYeah that's my problem....I'll pack them 'for waiting at ballet' and then I find myself doing them all the time. The same goes with leaders and enders, I just end up making the whole quilt rather than pacing myself. Such is life :)
