No apples on the tree this year, just late blooming hexie flowers...
and it's time to pick some autumn hexie berries too...
Ahh sweet colour. The fabric is Jennifer Paganellis Honey Child, I am completely in love with these prints.
The box travels with me, sew on the go, the perfect craft for the regular train and tube journeys into the big smoke.
Do you commute regularly? Then English Paper piecing is the perfect past time for you! I might do a wee tutorial here soon, if anyone is interested?
Happy weekending to you :)
I would love a tutorial.
ReplyDeleteThese are so lovely. How do you make them?
Please share.
Those are amazing and cute idea of hanging them in the tree, I would love to have a tree like that, especially in the winter when things are so gloomy! I love the fabric too!

Love the fabric that you are using.
Here is the other one that I did that took 15 years http://snailcloth.blogspot.com/2011/04/quilting-meeting.html
Such a fun post, love all those stunning hexies xox This post has reminded me of my hexie project sitting in a bag in my attic, I must find some time to work on it as I loved making them as they reminded me of my junior school sewing project back in the 1970's ! :0)
ReplyDeletePaper piecing is perfect for travelling. You've put these fabrics together beautifully.
ReplyDeleteif only those flowers really grew in trees!
ReplyDeletehexi's must be in the air, i just posted about hexi-puffs, a knitted hexagon quilt.
Just LOVE these. Honey Child is such a beautiful fabric line. You did a great job with them.
ReplyDeleteYes please, a tutorial for me. I've been going to make these forever so the basics might give me the push I need :-)
ReplyDeleteI love your hexies!
