Wednesdays Flowers

I didn’t post last Wednesday as i was ill with the flu & tonsillitis. Was so bored with just lying around reading & sleeping. By Friday i was desperate to sew even though i was still ill & tired easily. So this is what i did Friday.photo's 5894

4 x 1” hexies. Still using the scrap basket but it’s getting harder to find pieces that i haven’t used on the 1” hexies that are still large enough.

3 x 1/4” hexies. Took me all day just about. :)

Come this week & i spent Monday cutting out the hexie templates & Tuesday finding fabrics & cutting out. The result of this effort?

Sick, feeling poorly, AND a glutton for punishment... piecing those teeny-tiny hexies. You DO enjoy pain! LOL But they ARE adorable, every one of them.
