Sewing Bee Tuesday


Today was a bee day with some of my friends. I enjoy getting together once a month but it is hard to come up with hand work sometimes. I needed an ongoing project.


This was as much as I got done all day long! One and a half flowers.


As you can see they are small. I want to put another round on, probably a solid fabric. At this point I am thinking crib quilt size!


I came prepared thinking I would get 6 or 7 finished during the day. Silly me.....



I packed them up in a this adorable bag that a friend gave to me. It has become my favorite!



I just had to share this beautiful coleus cutting. It is called Fishnet Stocking. The colors are so cool and a little Halloween looking. I will be planting this in some pots next summer.

    I love the way you are colour coordinating your hexie flowers! At least you have enough prepared for the next 3-4 weeks. That coleus is very Halloweeny looking, I love it's name!

    Your hexies are going to be awesome. I'm always prepping more than I could possibly do for a sew day. But now you're ready to use any spare moments you hasve to sew another one. Yahoo!

    I love you hexies. The Idea of a bee it to have fun and sew. Do not be hard on yourself. Fun is super important!

    Your hexies are so sweet! It is hard sometimes to have a good ongoing hand project to work on. This one looks like a fun one.:)

    You're so right about needing handwork! I'm glad to see you've started this hexie EPP project. I'm in need of a hand project too. Seems everyone is making Grandmother's Flower Garden, and though it's nice, I'd like to create something else. If you have any good ideas for me, please share!

    I love the hexies. They always take me longer than I think they will.
