Despite my best endeavours, the red fabric scraps are not disappearing, in fact, they are multiplying. I thought a rainbow quilt of hexie flowers might be something to aim for at the end of the year, so here is my red offering.
I shall keep the same centre for all the flowers and then shall probably mount the flowers onto the same colour fabric. I shall have a look for some lovely background fabric and sashings. As I have twelve months, I have plenty of time to choose.
This is going to look very pretty. It's amazing how far scraps will go isn't it?
ReplyDeleteOh my word...that's spooky. I have a huge pile of hexes cut and ready to sew into a quilt. It's a project for the autumn for me I think.
ReplyDeleteGreat minds!
oh I love patchwork. It's so therapeutic.
ReplyDeleteI love hexies and that is a good way to use up scraps.
ReplyDeleteIt's always a surprise to me to go upstairs and see a sea of blue and sometimes green yarn. I am not sure how it gets there, though I know I have bought it myself. I forget how much I own of certain colors. I think you may have the same problem in red. No worries though...it's all pretty--not to mention vibrant! Let it multiply if it wants.
ReplyDeleteI think you should keep making red hexies until you run out of red! LOL
ReplyDeleteI love making hexies....yours will be great.
ReplyDeleteIt'll be lovely. The same colour flower centre and background will make it striking. I agree with you completely about the scraps. I think we put in one piece of fabric and that has a ripple effect and another two appear. lol
