Fun With Hexies

I have fallen in love with hexagons.

My little friendly mouse likes them, too :)

This is my first attempt at making them,

and I have found it to be a wonderful project

for the evening, 

while watching the television.

After making my hexagon flowers,

I appliqued them on to my squares on the sewing machine.

This is the fun part . . .

deciding how to design the quilt.

I cut a lot of bands to go around the edges and form a boarder. 

This quilt is around four foot square.

It's the perfect size for cuddling on the sofa,

and keeping my cold winter feet warm and cozy :)

Here are a couple of photos of it on the frame.

Well, you can see what I'll be up to for the next week or so.

I'll show it to you when it is done.

What are you working on this week?

Whatever you are doing, do it with gusto and have fun :)

Love you all.

Your blogging sister,  

Connie :)
