I just prepped a bunch of hexagons Saturday afternoon and drew my lines so I have plenty of hand work today making pretty flowers. I see another row of color on the top and some white flowers on the top and bottom. I'll call the hexagon flower part of this project done at that point. I think a small multi color inner border and then white for a hand stitched cable in a pretty variegated thread...... Then again... who knows what the quilt will decide once I get to that point. They do tend to have a mind of their own.

Slow stitching Sunday....
Are you sick of this project yet? I have my two sections together and added a row of colored flowers this week. I know - there are two greens together but they are staying.

Head on over to Kathy's Quilts and see what other slow stitching is being worked on today.

There is no way, no how that I'll be sick of your hexie project ... I love hexies! And your hexie project is just plain adorable!
absolutely not sick of it, nope! It's lovely, and it's summer and you are growing a lovely garden : )
Lookin' good - the white fabric just makes everything pop!
What a lovely garden you are making!
Definitely not sick of your project! I have not jumped on the hexagon bandwagon myself, but I sure admire everyone else's. Visiting from Slow Sunday Stitching.
No! Who would get tired of looking at beautiful flowers? It is coming along nicely and I think it will agree with your plan. Happy sewing
I love the bright colours of the flowers. I'm curious to see what your quilt decides.
This is a cheerful project and hexies flowers just make me smile. I am amazed at how much you get done.
No, not sick. I sit in the garden and enjoy the same flowers every day...same with your hexies every week! How cheery.
So pretty! It's amazing how the ideas just come as you're working on the project so that when you get to the next step, you know what you're doing!
Thanks for linking up!
this is a lovely hexie project--the colors are so clear..love it hugs, Julierose
