In the meantime the photo promised from last week.
For me, this is the pursuit of any pastime that uplifts my spirit. Mostly in creative pursuits such as, patchwork, quilting, cross stitching, embroidery and dressmaking. I also enjoy gardening, painting, reading, decorating, & cooking. Some other aspects of life's journey, may be shared on occasions. We moved back home to Australia in February 2018

Re-assessed & Progress.
Last night I had a change of thought & decided to unpick the entire stitching on the present piece of Floba. After all, I can get started faster with most of the gridding already done, with a few repairs.
In the meantime the photo promised from last week.
The light is not good on the second hexagon row, although this photo is better than the one I took earlier, which had too much colour reflection from the walls and curtains. It is getting harder to capture a full shot as more is stitched. Perhaps now would be a good time to install my Flannel board in the sewing room, for future photos.

WOW Kay this is coming along beautifully..Love your colours...you are such a patient lady but it will be well worth all this hand stitching when completed....What is the actual size of each hexagon???????
ReplyDeleteI thought I had replied to this Crazybeads, :(
ReplyDeleteThank you for your kind comments.
The hexagons are approximately 2" so many to make & stitch together. I have a friens who is making an entire quilt from 1/2'' ones in Liberty fabric. Think I will pass on that one although it does look so beautiful, and she only started last year.
