Wednesday Hexies for the Cottage

As you can see the flowers have mixed petals.  Trying to do the landscape/ background of the hexie cottage picture. The flowers will be a mixture of colors to blend the overall picture. I, too am looking forward to the finished piece.  There is approximately six hundred and sixty seven pieces for hexies and the separate insert cottage in stitchery.  This will take some time.  I make the hexies during  night time television.   Have a good week until next Wednesday,  Blessings,  Brook

Wednesday Hexies

I did some more hexies, now I will start to connect them. A first time, if you have not been to my blog before stroll down a few pictures and you will see the quilt picture. It has a cottage among the hexies that make up the landscape. There are many hexies, this will take some time, but I really like this project. Have a great week. Blessings, Brook

Wednesday, Red is the color of the Day

A picture of a small red flower,I made three, they will be used for the pattern with the house in the garden. I posted the picture pattern earlier, if you missed it just scroll down a little ways. The larger flower will make another project for spring. I plan to post later my variety of items in my collection of red and yellow. Busy getting patterns and kits to the shop.
Have a productive week, watch those gardens grow. Blessings, Brook

Autumn Waiting

I have been busy making Autumn patterns, and the mood is set.  Autumn dreams are the cozy life style it brings. Loving the colors of Fall and a breeze in the air.  I am ready to knit the tiny mittens, that I sell this time of year.  At night , I look forward to a good read.  Just today, my wonderful next door neighbors loaned me a book  " The Harvey Girls" by Lesley Poling-Kempes.  It is about women who opened the west.  I am a History reader, excited to start tonight, you now know what I will be doing tonight.  My week appears to be very busy, may you have a pleasant week.    Waiting for Autumn,   Blessings,   Brook
