Design Wall Monday - 4/25/16

2 pieced hexies and 2 chrysanthemum rosettes (hexie club birthday shape for 2015)
completed at my conferences last week. I've finished some other rosettes but they got
filed away before being photographed. Oopsie!

My work conference is held in Saratoga Springs every other year. On those years
I stop at a quilt store south of Syracuse on the way home. This year my goal was
blue/yellow/orange (across the top) for my pieced hexie project and hexie fabrics
along the bottom for my iSpy . This brings me up  to 96 different hexie fabrics!!
Thing is, I think I need 4 more to finish the design I am working on. Oh and the
green batik (top left) is sashing for the iSpy. Unless I change my mind, of course...

This weekend was a statewide volunteer fireman recruiting event.
The weather was gorgeous but the event wasn't very successful.
We did get 1 application which is better than none...

Yesterday was spent making the rest of the iSpy blocks and sewing them into twosies.
I'll have to finish pressing them tonight. Can we say boring??!!

  1. That blue hexie on the left is especially gorgeous to me.
    What great kitty fabric!
    I was going to tell you I could send you a hexie fabric I just saw in a LQS, but I see you have it in you loot there. : )
    Pressing is a necessary evil, isn't it?

  2. loving the turquoise with yellow hexie fabric also the green batik. You mention ironing do you also wash new fabric I started to so have to continue, the shop where I get most of mine from advises washing, says if we saw the warehouses where the fabric comes from we would all wash straight away. Shame only one new recruit hopefully more will come forward
