We had really strange weather this week. It was cold last weekend and then became hot super hot on Tuesday. We had temps in the low 30s with a humidex in the low 40s. That continued for a couple of days. Yesterday afternoon it started to cool down. Today it is cold again - only around 11C. I just can't get used to this.
Yesterday my DD asked me to come to her school and help her out with a Grade 1/2 class that she had for art. I had mixed feelings, but once I got there I quite enjoyed myself. The kids made self portraits.
Today is Friday so I should give you a hexie update. I managed to get an entire row of hexies around my La Passion. Now I will put a row of blue around it. I don't have enough of the blue that I used in the centre of the blocks, but I think I have something very close to it.
I have also been playing around with some very small hexies. I think I might make a pillow with them. I have no pattern for this and am just making it up as I go. I'm using lots of scraps so it will be very colourful.

Have a Terrific Weekend!

Hetty, know just what you mean about the vicissitudes of the weather - it's been that way here all summer, it seems. Those self portraits would make a darling quilt. Love how that pink row of hexies accents your La Passion - super! And thanks for linking to Hexie Friday.
Your La Passion is coming together very beautiful. It's good that you may the fabrics as you go. Always a new round and a new possibility. Have a nice weekend! I'll follow your progress.
Your hexie project is fabulous! I am enjoying seeing your progress.
Your project is coming along nicely.
Great hexie quilt!
What a fun class and always love your hexies
Love the self portraits. That hexie project is looking mighty fine
I love self portraits by children. Our weather is turning up again. Geeze. I'm surprised I'm not sick with all the changes.
