Darn, I had this all written and then added a photo from my phone and lost it all! Bummer.
I had pulled out and stitched 8 of the hexagon QAYG blocks that were prepped on Friday night. That means I needed to pull things to prep some more. I use the batting cut offs for these.
Then cut 4 sets of the backing fabrics and 4 of colored fabrics.
Time to get them ready for folding the binding on and clip it.
I am using the clips I got on sale from Missouri Quilt Company in December for $5. One down, 19 to go. These will be added to the original quilt to make it a little bigger on my bed.
I started a sourdough starter back in January and it finally behaved a couple of weeks ago. I made a sourdough bread which was yummy. I then found the website amybakesbread. I made a batch of chocolate chip scones, and Aidan requested I make them again! I did this morning. I also have a dough for focaccia in process. Aidan requested a garlic one, I might add some grape tomato's to a small section and some herbs over all of it. We will see how it turns out.
Linking up with Kathy and the Slow Sunday Stitchers.

Love those hexies--I need to make more--just the hands get so tired stitching...hugs, Julierose
Sounds like you are going to be busy today. Do you prep and clip several hexis before you begin stitching? Or do you just work on one and then move the clips to the next? That is a nifty hexi template too. Enjoy your day, Deb. Hugs
I’m sorry you lost your post! I also use Blogger and upload pics from my phone. I learned, the hard way, that the post cannot be open in both places when editing. I ensure my laptop version is closed before editing on my phone. I hope this helps. 😊Or perhaps it’s not relevant to what happened with you?
I love your hexagons! What size are they? I started a similar project some time ago. Perhaps your beautiful original quilt was part of my inspiration search! Exciting!
How cute to make a paw print granny square afghan! It will be fun!
are those hexies for that one quilt you thought was done and washed/dried it and it shrunk too much so you were adding more to it?
Wow--you are keeping busy--sewing and learning how to bake with sour dough starter-- We will probably lose our Joann's store soon and now I just read that the only quilt fabric store further up the road is closing--they are retiring--that shop is full full full--so a big sale starts on Thursday--sad sad sad--have fun this week--hugs, di
Sounds like you're making good progress on enlarging the hexie quilt! Do you know how many more you need to add? Those scones look yummy! I looked up that website - so many good recipes there!
A great post Deb. Love watching these hexagons grow and also your crochet too. You are so clever to make focacia and sourdough bread. Getting the starter is what stops me from making it. Adding chocolate chips to scones is a great idea...I know someone who would love that!
