Hexagons - A new life
I started making these little 1/2" hexagon flowers a long time ago and then just stopped. But now I'm giving them a new lease of life . . .
I am adding a hexagon at each end and changing them from flowers to diamonds!
I've had to re-purpose some suffolk puffs (or yo-yos) from another pile of unfinished pieces for a couple of them, since I'd used every last scrap of a couple of fabrics. Some of these fabrics were used in a quilt or two. Then the scraps became circles to be stitched into yo-yos. Then these little hexies were cut from the scraps from between the circles!
This will probably end up being a table runner, not the queen sized quilt I once imagined! Still, better something than nothing, right?
