Life got in the way and so I am posting my hexie progress on Saturday. I'm thinking I may name Hexie Friday Hexie Days in 2014 since it's open to linking for more than one day, and life keeps getting in the way.
Here's the little progress I made:
For some reason I had a hard time picking the outer rim fabric for this hexie. I was aiming for a type of daisy or cone flower coloring, especially with the bright red one I finished last week as part of this trio I'm working on. I came across a lovely piece of Liberty of London fabric in my stash a dear friend gave me when she returned from a trip to England and Ireland. I can see and feel why people collect this fabric - the feel is so soft and smooth and the little print of it is darling and so detailed. Thank you, Bette!
What are you doing on this 4th day of Christmas? I know Billie has colorful hexies and another cute bear to show us. Use the linky below to let us see your eye candy. Doesn't have to be hexie - we like all kinds. Closed Monday, midnight.

So loving your oranges. I think you picked the perfect fabrics to go together.
ReplyDeleteThis is beautiful. So nice to brighten up the middle flower with such a nice fabric. You could call it Hexie Weekend and let us link from Friday through Sunday. I'll link up tomorrow, I think. Today I've finished the Aurifil block. Have a nice weekend!
ReplyDeleteOrange has to be my favourite colour to add to a quilt. It is juicy and adds sparkle! Your hexie block is lovely and I know that it it will just glow in the quilt! I have a little pile of Liberty prints and love them but am reluctant to cut into them! I need to get over that if I want to buy more fabric!
