Hexi Madness

Yes I have been a bit busy with hexis in the last month

and I had a little cat I was looking after help me along.  It was don't move or I will attack your toes quite often, and he did find the most unusual places to sleep in, such as an old laptop box.

Also now that I have moved into this place I could order my Christmas Ornaments 2015 book as I had somewhere to send it to finally.  Of course I had to add a couple of extras.

Hexi Magic

Some more hexis I have made and sent off for swaps I have been in lately

Not quite caught up yet but nearly

FNWF Update

Again I signed up to FNWF and enjoyed some quiet stitching time while watching programs on MySky I had recorded.
This time I stitched some hexis together for swaps I am in as I finally got some pink fabric.

Glad I got these finished as I now have a terrible cold and have been laid up this weekend.  Feeling  much better today ...... as in I can move.

Caught Up At Least Something

So far behind in so many things but I am happy to say my hexi swap and Paper peice block swap are caught up finally.
First Anna and I were partners in the Paper piece swap and I sent her these 12" blocks

and she sent me these lovely 8" blocks

Then I am in a couple of hexi swaps and received these

and have sent these on off.

Now to catch up my Natures Journey stitch-along and Farm Girl Vintage.

Some More Hexagons

Here are some more hexagons I have made for swaps I am in recently.  These are fun to make and I was using InvisaFil thread for making these, but have now discover Bottomline thread which I love even more and they are also on prewound bobbins, so easy to take away with you.

Lots of Hexagons

I am an a couple of Hexi swaps and these are what I have made and received in the last 2 months.  My red and white garden is coming along nicely

Its Been A While

Well its been a while since my last post.  Things have been hectic as I have moved house, town, farm.  Hubby got a new job on a much larger farm at Kuratau, Turangi and I have just got a new Registered Nurse job at Taupo Hospital which I start in three weeks time. We do have a magnificent view of the mountains ....when it is fine ....... and there has not been much off that in the last 2 1/2 weeks.

I have not done much stitching in that time.  Just a few hexis and some Christmas swap stitching which is a secret for now. 

 I also had a go at making a decoration and changed the finish ever so slightly in incorporate my lace.
