Rosie's Hexie Quilt Best of Friends

I haven't worked on this quilt for a year.  I know it is a year because the last time I worked on it was at the 2013 NOTYQ Retreat and that was 51 weeks ago.  I'm getting it ready to take with me on this year's retreat which starts this Friday.
I've started cutting fabric ready to be made into large hexie flowers.  The centres will all have a stitchery from Rosalie Quinlan's Best Friends Forever BOM.
This is such a useful project.  I can see myself making lots of these busy bags for Henry
There is a fabulous, detailed tutorial to accompany the pattern HERE.  Huge thanks to Becky from Infarrantly Creative for sharing it with us.
Hope you are having a creative day
Love

    that stitchery quilt is lovely, and isn't it funny how you put quilts away for some time and then get a renewed energy for them,
