The Beast has gone to school for its grand unveiling tomorrow, and I need more purple to continue with the Purple Present, so I have returned to the rainbow Hexagon
We last saw it like this
But I wasn't happy with the blue or purple second rounds, and didn't have big enough pieces of fabric for the third round. Nicky suggested piecing the second and third rounds . . . thank you Nicky, great idea, but the downside was the hour spent 'unsewing' this evening. But it's all done
so now I'm ready for the new second rounds . . . just as soon as I finish piecing them
I started this blog for me - it expanded to show BFF Jackie what I was doing - and a few others have invited themselves too - everybody welcome! Mostly about patchwork, with random comments about embroidery, family and life in general, come on in, put your feet up, and I'll put the [virtual] kettle on.
You have the patience of a saint!
ReplyDeleteNot sure I could have born un-sewing all that, well done you!
ReplyDeleteOh now I feel bad : ( Hope it works out OK!
ReplyDeletePoor you! Unsewing takes so long but now you change those colours and end up with a quilt you love. Good luck with the next rounds :)
ReplyDeleteI say again... rather you than me xx good luck x
ReplyDeleteThink of how happy you will be with the finished result.
