So last Friday was stitching with friends...
.. lots of cyber friends and quite a lot of real friends...
.. I forgot photo's so you will have to take my word for it......
(I have witnesses!!!)
Thanks Cheryll..... I had some amazing pavlova...
.. you have to take my word for it ..
... but I have witnesses ....
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In the morning I basted hexagons...
I do them the old way of sewing them in all the way through the cardboard -
I can see why people get hooked on these... very calming and peaceful....
... and in the evening I sewed some together - I'm trying to make a piece of fabric to cut up and sew!!! .....
See my sweet little hexie box.... I got these gorgeous melt in my mouth chocs for Christmas.... Champagne truffles
... who would have thought....
they were wonderful... and the little box is perfect
Mr Postie dropped by with a Valentines postcard from Dawn (no blog) in Canada..
... isn't it sweet with the little bits of bling on the sides of the hearts....
(I forgot to take pics of what I sent... sigh)
over the weekend I have been working on another cushion for a quilting challenge..... started off with a bit of applique....
Righto, Gotto Go..... there's a train to play with....

Lovely hexies and a sweet postcard.
That is a lovely little applique, too.
OK I believe you about sewing... but I need proof of that yummy pavlova... but I suppose if it was yummy... it would be ALL gone. Darn it...

Sure, sure. We believe you. You've been very busy. What's the plan for your hexies?
Of course I believe you, now what were the names of those witnesses?
Love those hexies, of course. See I told you that you might become addicted!!

I haven't succumbed to hexies yet......love their box! What a lovely postcard, perhaps one of these days I should join in a swap too. All together now, down by the station early in the morning......

Something so lovely about a pretty tin of pretty prepped hexies.
Those champagne truffles sound yummo! Love your French General hexies....you got lots done :) Barb.
Love your hexies! I like the old fashioned basting method too.
I love your truffle tin, I kept a box that I bought caramels whilst in Paris as it was too cute to throw out.
Love the hexies! Will you make the Quilt of the century too ? Can't wait what you will do with it. Love the cute little box but I am surprise to see it is already EMPTY!!! LOL. Okay enough talking otherwise you might miss your train. :D
Love your hexies! They are very addictive. Tins and boxes come in handy for all sorts of sewing "stuff".

A busy old time Fiona. Those hexies are gorgeous - hehe madness to sew them up then cut them up!!! Very cute train and I also love the postcard you've recieved.
What a gorgeous card! Are they little half inch hexies? I too baste all the way through the card - less risk of them slipping out of shape I feel. Such pretty colours you are using. xx
