Flowers & Books

 

Since i was busy yesterday finishing some projects i didn’t get to my flowers until today. I put Letters to Juliet in the DVD player & proceeded to sit & sew.

All of your flowers are amazing. I just love reading books by Cindy Woodsmall and Beverly Lewis. I didn't know that Ms Lewis had started another trilogy - I'll have to check that one out.

bliss - what an afternoon watching good movies & making flowers for your garden.

I've enjoyed Beverly Lewis's books - have to watch out for The Thorn.

Love Leanne

Lovely hexies, I can't imagine making 1/4" ones, might give it a try someday.

Hello Jeanette!

Lovely hexies and looks as though you are reading some wonderful books.

Nothing like "curling up" and reading a good book.

Thanks for sharing!

I must try one of those 1/4" hexies some time. Oh and thanks for reminding me of Letters to Juliette. Haven't seen it yet. It is so relaxing to sew while watching a good movie. I watched "A Time to Kill" last night...tough subject matter but great message. And I finished my one hexie for the week.

Very pretty flowers Jeanette , you amaze me with how many you can make each week , I was just too busy this week to even think about it . Interesting books too!

Love your hexie's......the books look interesting..I am always on th look out for a good book to read......not that I get a lot of time for reading but I like to have one on the bedside table for the times I can't get to sleep.

 At the start of March i had this pile of blocks. I couldn't get my head around how to turn all these differing block sizes into a quilt...
