Hexies

It's been a while since I last managed to get any hexies done but today I sat and made a couple of flowers up

Hopefully I should have more time for them now 

Another snowflake

It's been a long tiring day today, my annual trip to Harrogate Knitting and Stitching show to help Kate out on her stand so a quick post this evening of the latest snowflake to arrive before I have an early night

Another snowflake

The postman brought me another snowflake today :)

Rosie decided to sit in the way as I went to put it down for a pic so I did it anyway the bonus being that you get to see her again today

More snowflakes

The other 3 I have received so far.

They do interlock but one of the others has outlined her's in white before sewing them together and I quite like that idea so I'm undecided as yet what I'll do 

Hexie snowflakes

Another swap I signed up for on Facebook.

This time it's for snowflakes in blue & white fabric, they are also 1" sides but this one is a UK only swap and there are only about 20 of us

The first 3 

Hexie quilt

I've started putting together my hexie quilt from the swap I'm doing on facebook, not quite sure if it's going to be a single quilt size or a lap quilt.

So far I've received 96 flowers from all over the globe, mostly from the US but a few have come from Australia and the butterfly one in the pic is from about 15 miles away :)

Hexie swap

I've been busy with the hexie swap on Facebook the last few weeks.

The second batch I made

And the third batch

These were all made while I was away in Lincolnshire last weekend, the lilac and lemon one's bottom right were both made while at an airshow at Lincolnshire Aviation sat just feet from Just Jane their resident Lancaster Bomber :)

And I'm starting to build up quite a collection now

These were all waiting for me when I got home on Monday

And all of these were waiting for me on Friday when I got home :)

Hexies

I'm taking part in a 1" hexie flower swap that's happening in the EPP (English Paper Piecing) group I'm in on facebook.  One member posted about it and it snowballed from there, all we have to do is message people to swap with make your flower, sign the centre and post it off, simples :)

My first 4 ready to go, these went to Tasmania, Canada and USA and yes I did sign them before I sent them

A couple of days ago the first one arrived 

This morning another 2 arrived
