Today is the first day of the
Flower Favorites Blog Hop.
I was invited to make a block using any
Benartex fabrics, as long as the block said "flowers." Since I was on a tight schedule, I chose to work with some Fossil Fern hexies (no kidding!) I had already completed.
|
Two inch EPP hexies using Fossil Ferns |
The Hop lasts for a week and includes a lot of inspiration. Go see what I've done at the
Sew in Love with Fabric blog. Then come back and tell me about it. IF YOU ARE A FOLLOWER of their blog, let me know. You are entered into the contest to win a fat quarter bundle of
Palm Springs (there are 38 different fabrics - not just the three I chose to feature today).
If you visit their
Facebook page and "like" them (or already follow them on Facebook), let me know that, too. You can enter to win a second time.
Contest is over May 6th. Make sure I have your email (Google accounts automatically show up). You have two chances to win: Follow
Benartex on either their
Facebook page (1 chance) and/or
Blog page (2nd chance). Those are the rules (which I didn't make up).
Debby, as always your hexies are just beautiful!

ReplyDeleteBeautiful and simple flower! I follow them on bloglovin. Thanks! sarah@forrussia.org
ReplyDeleteLove your hop block! Question for you... did you just simply straight stitched the hexies to the background very close to the edge, or did you use a blind hem stitch? I looks like just a straight stitch in the photo, but I am blind (read blonde LOL) so I thought I should ask :) Thank you for sharing your idea with us!

ReplyDeleteYour hexies are beautiful. Your stitching is truly invisible! I was wondering if anyone didn't stitch through the paper as I thought that seemed like a lot of extra work to get the papers out.

ReplyDeleteNice hand-piecing! I am very (very) slowly working on a Grandmother's garden. (My aim is to piece the whole thing out of hexagons, but we'll see if that actually happens!)

ReplyDeleteDebby, I thought it was so interesting that you didn't need to take out your basting stitches--I never thought of that, but it would definitely save some time.
