Colourful, floral, hexie, Out of the Box Friday + a felt pincushion too.

 This week's Colourful Friday with Robyn of Daisy Quilts could have been chosen with me in mind because I love hexagon flowers.  Here are just a few of my favourites.

Of course I've got to include my hexie flowers for my Confetti Quilt

This one came from a wonderful blog Attic 24.  Makes me want to learn crochet so much.

 I couldn't resist buying this wonderful hexagon fabric

Huge thanks to Robyn for organising Colourful Friday for us every couple of weeks.

Today is also Floral Friday with Bronwyn at Korumburra Quilting. A favourite plant in my garden is the white potato creeper.  It blooms virtually all year around and is another plant that would have been grown in my grandma's garden.  I love the simple charm of these easily grown old fashioned plants.  Bronwyn is a talented gardener and has some wonderful news about Lady Eva's photo, so its always fun to visit her.

 

  I've not had a lot of time for sewing in the last couple of days but I did make Block 4 of  

 Out of the Box with Dawn and Vicki.  This month I sewed Vicki's block as it featured cups of tea - one of my very favourite things.

And the postie arrived with  a parcel containing this

as part of Fiona's Felt Pincushion Swap at BubzRugz.  I am incredibly lucky as Dianne, who worked on it first included the most wonderful present.  Some of her Providence official tartan - Nova Scotia tartan - it is definitely going into my next wool project.  I love it, many thanks to  Dianne.  Take a close look at her beautiful stitching on Laura's base.  I'm sure Laura will be thrilled.

This is a great swap.
