Crafty Kids and Half pint Hexies

We spent an evening with our God Daughter (Rosie, age 13) and her parents: There is a long standing joke about Brian's sheds - so Rosie made us a third shed for Christmas . . .


Isn't it fab.  The walls and roof is made by pouring melted chocolate into a mould, but the icicles, the snow in the windows, and the roof tiles are all her own work.  My main concern is that I'll be the size of a house by the time it's all gone!

I've shown you the pouch that Annabelle gave me for Christmas, and I've told you about my plans to do some mini hexies, well the pouch is ideal to hold the project

And here is the first flower! (Yes the cutting board squares are 1 inch squares)

  4. Goodness me - they are TINY! Are you using any specially thin fabric or thread? How big do you plan to make the finished quilt? First rosette looks great! xx
