Hexies & things

My gosh the week has flown by again. Here it is Wednesday already. I don’t like this time rushing me by so quickly.

photos 022    My 3 hexies for this week. My flower garden is slowly building it’s way to a quilt.photos 023 Baby sister. I think i’ll turn all the 1/2” hexies into a baby quilt.photos 024My EQ7 upgrade finally arrived. I’d pre-ordered it & waited &  waited until i got to the point i was just about to email & ask where it was when i received an email saying it was on it’s way. But i still had to wait as i was away when it arrived.

photos 025This also arrived whilst i was away. I was shown it recently & couldn’t pass it by. Full of lovely bags. :) 

photos 026Bought this pattern from www.brigittegiblin.com.au It uses 1/2” hexagons. photos 028 This is also Brigitte’s pattern & i was so pleased when i discovered it as this is what i wanted to do with my clamshells but had no idea really what to do.photos 029 And last but not least these cute little purses also from Brigitte using the 1/2” hexagons.

Time sure is rushing by! Your flowers are beautiful and look at all the wonderful patterns. Sweet baby hexagon quilt and Brigitte has an interesting way of piecing the clamshells. One day I will give that a try.

Well, at least I'm not the only one who feels that time is going to fast! I can't believe it either and I don't work!!! Who has time to work?!?! :) Well, you have lots of goodies in the mail. I saw where you can buy these clasps for the purses on a blog today... It's on my list, will have to think of it. Oh how lovely these are! Well, your flowers are beautiful this week and you are ahead of me, as my homework is not yet finished! I'm off to sew! :)

My how your garden does grow!
I especially like the green flower with red accents.

My word verification is 'compops' ... I wonder is that like compost for fabric flowers?

 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...
