I have received all the January hexies (no theme) from from the UKQU Hexie Swap group
And have made the next groups of flowers for the February Mardi Gras theme
They all have a small silver mask embroidered in the centre hexi
I have embroidered this design twelve times for church
And this bag has been re purposed - I love the design and the fabrics, but the colours didn't go with any coat, jacket or cardigan that I own!
A friend commented that she loved it - "just my colours" - so that prompted me ... I used up the left over squares from the Janet Clare / BFL Quilt and made myself another one in exactly "my" colours
And I added a deep slip pockets for credit cards, keys or phone
And the crochet has grown: I'm finally on the second ball . . . but it's misshapenness is becoming even more obvious! I hope blocking can work miracles!!!
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.
