Hexies, Squishies, and Hexie Squishies

When I received my partner assignment for The Inchy Swap this month, I immediately searched by stash for some dots.  As it turns out, I don’t have many dots.  I need to rectify that problem.  But I found some to make two hexie flowers, and I also made one for myself with fabric I bought on my shopping expedition with Irene last weekend.  For more hexie inspiration, visit our hostess Karen for links to more flowers.

I received my May flowers from the swap this week too, so I’ve been surrounded by hexie goodness.  Thanks to Maggie for these pretty pinks.

And the same day the hexies arrived, I received this beautiful mug rug from Wendi!

A sunny flower for Sunny!  I’ve made my mug rug for Wendi, but she hasn’t received it yet, so I won’t show it until later.

 

 

 

This weekend, I’ll be joining Hazel and the Christmas gang for the monthly Christmas Quilt Along.

It’s not to late to join in, and Quilt Sue has issued a very interesting challenge.  You know you want to check it out.  And Christmas is almost here!

Be kind to those on your Christmas list…..Sunny

  7. Well first, I love your new blog wallpaper and that beautiful new "Sunny-flower" on your header! Next, your hexie flowers are lovely...Irene said the shop you went to together was fabulous and she hated that she had to control herself because of suitcase space limitations but that the company she had made up for it. Cheers!
