Pink Hexie Quilt
Wow!
I can’t believe it’s been so long since I posted on this blog.
I couldn’t even figure out how to upload pictures.
Dave figured out how to upload my pictures from my phone so I’m back in business.
This is what I am working on now - 1” hexies.
I hand cut the papers I use from magazine subscription cards.
This is what I want to make.
It is a design I found on Pinterest from 2016 by Glynis from the Sydney Southern Cross Quilters Guild.
I figure I need 500 plus pink hexies
I’ve done just over 370.
Pink is the colour of the day!
Okay - enough about me…
Let me introduce you to two pink and yellow moths - the Ruby Maple Moth or Dryocampa Rubiconda that I unexpectedly saw in my walk when I stopped to take a picture of the yellow flower.
Pink Clover and a Yellow Swallowtail Butterfly.
I’m going to keep this short and hopefully post more often.
I actually have some blogs I started that I didn’t finish or post from 2023.
Happy quilting
Pam

You have a smart and helpful husband. You are so lucky.
ReplyDeleteYes I am lucky.
DeleteWhat a fun post! Thank you for sharing your pink hexes and hopes for an eventual quilt. Your pink flowers and butterflies make me think you must be a great hiking companion.
ReplyDeleteCould the last flower be swamp milkweed?
ReplyDeleteYes, definitely. It is beside a wet spot by the road. I didn’t know what it was called. Thanks for identifying it.
DeleteAbsolutely fantastic! What a talent you are! LMM
