Hexies

Thought it was about time I showed some more of my hexies.

 
At last count, I'd made about 70. 


 
 I am finding them really good to take out ... easy to pick up and put down.




My husband spent 6 days in hospital last week so they were a nice distraction for me.





This weekend I'll be writing school reports and trying to finish a gift for a friend. Hope you find some stitching time too.

  24. Sooooo beautifull!!Those colours!! Just very nice:) Years ago I made an hexagon-quilt, it took ages and I was not so quite happy about ist, in fact, I thought the pattern looked too old fashioned, most of these quilts,than,were dark and the flowers seemed so geometric to me...with these new, bright colous that catch your eye and soul, I might even start another one :) Your will be just great!!:)
