I sewed my hexies together for the June hexie blog flower last night. But I didn't have the layout for it. And I sewed it wrong. The stem at the bottom would not have come out straight. If I wanted it to turn out like the one on the hexie blog, I would have had to undo many hexies and anyone who does these things knows how difficult it is to rip them out without shredding the rest of the blocks. So I redesigned it and now it will be appliqued to a background fabric and made into another outdoor pillow.
I liked the colours because I have lots of purple flowers in my garden right now. Here are some Sweet Williams.
And this is the Hydrangea that I planted in the spring. My first Hydrangea flower. Am I ever proud! It is one of those lacy ones.
Hope everyone has a terrific weekend! We are going out to the Mandarin to celebrate my husband's birthday tonight. It's a long weekend for some of us. Canada Day is on Tuesday. Some folks are taking Monday off too. Every day is Canada Day for me!

Lovely flower! It's fun to see everyone's version. I'm still sewing on mine.
ReplyDeleteSounds like a good save. Enjoy your meal. Haven't been to Mandarin in years.
ReplyDeleteYour hexie is awesome. We call ooopsie, "a different kind of right.".
ReplyDeleteI really enjoy you pictures of your flowers.
LOVE it Hetty!
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday to the husband! Love your purple flowers!
ReplyDeleteYour hexies are wonderful. And beautiful flowers.
ReplyDeleteHopping over from a Hexie Weekend. Such pretty colors for your hexies!
ReplyDeleteI love your hydrangea. Hopefully we'll both get more than just the one (not looking very promising here).
