Hexie Weekend and I need

your advise! I've been rearranging my sewing room as I bought a new machine (but that is for another post). In going through boxes I found this:

I had bought the top a few years ago at a quilt show near Carlsbad and forgotten about it.  It's totally done by hand:

Whoever made this made a truly scrappy top and some creative piecing.

 She even used the fabric where it was joined at the mill.

My question is this - do you think this can (or should) be saved.  The white muslin is fraying at seams. Click to enlarge the fourth picture and you'll see what I mean. Someone (not me!) must have washed it in trying to clean it and made the seams fray even more. I'm considering making the missing flower, replacing the few printed fabrics that are shredding with some 40s-50s fabric I have, laying the top on a piece of white fabric and then sandwiching to thin batting and a back.   Then again, I might just salvage the flowers and set them on white Kona and remake the top.  Help!

What are you working on?  Linky below.  Would love to see your eye candy.

Hexi Weekend still

Home from entertaining my cousins.  I'm watching the last quarter final game of the World Cup, and it's an exciting one.  I'd like both of these teams to win, but it can't be so. And I haven't done as much hexi-ing as I thought as the games are so fast paced - I can't look away from the screen for more than a few seconds. But here is my progress:

I have 15 prepped (those are stacks of seven), two stitched together and two done - I'm over the half way mark!

How are you doing?  Started another project recently?  Would love to see what you're doing.  Linky below.

Stash/Design Wall Post/Applique Too!

I used a 1/2 yard from my stash to whip this charity top together.  I used a modified tube technique for it:

This top took about an hour and is for my St Ann's charity group.  Numbers on the sidebar for my stash report.

 I added another row of appliqued circles to my Happy Scrappy Orphan block quilt.  Need to work on this more as I'm getting behind, but what else is new?

And in the mail:

I got my huge box of Goodies from winning Rhonda's giveaway!  So many goodies! Just wanted to say a big thank you to Rhonda at Ravelly 1 for this. More on this later.

I'm linking to Judy's Patchwork Times, Lyn's BOMs Away, Connie's Linky Party Tuesday and Esther's WOW as I have done some applique. Phew - now off for two days of fun with my cousins and Mom in Temecula. See you for Hexie Weekend which is still open til Monday, midnight.
