Another flower made. I am really liking Karen's method of putting the center hexagons into an open donut or "noodle" as she calls them in assembling this flower. Went together much faster. And I figured out how to use a continuous thread on all six of the outer hexagons without stopping and starting for each one. I'll put together a short tutorial on that shortly.
Off to start another one so I can use it in the tutorial. I'm linking to Kathy's Slow Stitching Sunday. Slow down, pick up a needle and relax with her.
