Flower Day has arrived again. :)

As you can see i changed the way the blog looked. I wanted to see how the new designs worked. I don’t like their choice of backgrounds. Wish i’d left it the old way. I think i'll be changing it back to the old way. :)
photos 052I’ve only managed 3 again for my Wednesday Flower Garden.  Since the making the first few hexies, which i made using fabric from my stash, i’ve since been making them from my scrap basket. Slowly reducing what’s in there. :)

Little sister all in blue floral.  But that’s not all the hexies. Read on & you’ll discover what else i made. :)
photos 054The postie delivered the bag handle Monday. It’s for one of the hexagon bags on the pattern i blogged about a few posts ago.
photos 055No your eye’s aren’t deceiving you. Mr Postie also brought this in Mondays mail. 1/4” hexagon templates. Am i crazy? yes. :)photos 057 Here is the gorgeous baby hexie. As you can see the entire flower made of the 1/4” hexies sits on a 1” template. They are so tiny. Bit fiddly but i had so much fun doing it. :)

Your hexagons look great! I bet I could make a boatload of them from my scraps!

You can still use the old templated as well. I Like the new designs because you can go in to the edit HTML and change the size of your photo make it smaller or larger.

Your hexies are looking good and wow what a challenge to do the 1/4 inch ones!! You can use up the tiniest scraps with those ones!!
