Happy Hexies

A few weeks ago I cut spotty fabrics into hexies, with a plan to use them with yellow to bulk them out.  But as I started stitching them together I realised that even with the added yellow there wasn't going to be anywhere near enough to carry on with this density of flowers.
 
 
Lisa had two brilliant ideas when she was home last week.

Firstly to do two bands of flowers, top and bottom, and to then have the middle mostly yellow with random flowers and hexies dotted around.

Secondly, for her to take some tacked hexies on the train and she would stitch them on the way home.

Yay!  Thank you Lisa, love you xxxx
