I started an oversize hexi in June 2012 after being first inspired by Janine, and then being lent her books.
I never really thought about how big it should get, but it was getting quite hard to add each new layer so it has sat, abandoned, in a drawer for the last 18 months. Jackie gave me a good talking to: just finish it!
So I have quilted it
And machined on a bright rainbow striped binding
And it's now another one in the to-be-finished-in-the-cooler-weather pile
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.
Oh, I love it! It is so cheery and colorful.
ReplyDeleteI hadn't realised I had given you a good talking to but well done me and really well done you for creating such a beauty :-)
