I am very excited to say that I have finished the Vignette quilt blocks 2 and 3 ... lots of stitching but I got there! A niece asked me the other day if I get sick of all the stitching but I really don't ... I said to me it is as relaxing as reading, yet I feel even better about it because I am accomplishing something ... I guess only another stitcher would understand the relaxation and satisfaction that stitching gives!!

I have also been stitching away on my hexagons and also love doing these, although my fingers are getting a bit sore! I have decided to make 20 hexagon flowers and then sew them into a row as I love seeing progress!! I have made my first 20 so I have started sewing them together ... this is how far I have got ...

I absolutely love your colors and your work Wendy. You are so inspiring. What is the name of your fabric or is it just scraps of that color toning?
ReplyDeleteTake care..
I agree your colours look great and you've done well to finish all that stitching- I have the first 2 issues but have not started yet, one day....Good work with your hexagons- I have lots of 'petals' just waiting to be sewn into flowers

ReplyDeleteSorry about the sore fingers thou, the price you pay for beauty?
Happy stitching,Michelle.
Wow you have been busy! They both look amazing!
ReplyDeleteIt is wonderful!! Wow!! And no, I don't think I'll tire of stitching either. I just wish I had more time for it!
ReplyDeleteYour Vignette blocks are fabulous. So are your hexies. I know what you mean about hexie sewing and sore fingers... my left thumb joint lets me know I'm gripping those little blighters way to hard while I sew!
