One Flower Wednesday - Lost Hexagons



There should be four hexagons in this picture because that's how many I made this week. But I've managed to lose three. They could be anywhere - inside a book, under a chair, blowing around in the garden (I took them outside to take a photo) or horrors in with the recycled papers. A few years ago I loved pressing flowers and had a large collection in old phone books. Unfortunately my DH found the stack, thought they were no longer of use, and off they went to the recycling plant. I do like to think that somewhere, someone's toilet paper or cardboard boxes, made with recycled paper, contain a little sprinkle of pressed violets, pansies and forget-me-nots

  5. I do hope you find your missing flowers. I do that too: press them between books, or other heavy things. Sometimes it's fun to just have extra. But to lose them is horrible. Good luck on finding them!

  10. I had a laugh when I read your story. It happens to me all the time. Just this morning I told my bee that I would make one quilt more in a year when I not always was surching for something.
    But I love your "one" flower,
    greetings,
