This is the pinnie that I made for my partner in the FLiPS swap. There’s a fairy that lives inside! My partner received it, so I can show it now!
I used an orphan block that I had left over from DQS (Doll Quilt Swap) on flickr. I love it when orphan blocks can be used in new ways! Don’t you?!
Thanks for stopping by!
Many of you may know that I am a Swap-a-holic. I can’t seem to help myself! LOL! I belong to a flickr group called, “Fab Little Pincushion Swap” or “FLiPS” for short… I’m playing around with some free patterns that I’ve found online. This one is from the following blog: http://pennyshands.blogspot.com/2010/08/hexie-caddy-tutorial.html Thanks Penny! And to all those creative people who make patterns free to us junkies. Er. Creative folk.
I, of course had to add some flying triangles because that’s how I am… I also shortened it a step and machine stitched my elongated hexies together… (I stopped exactly on the corner so I could still hand stitch the hexies to the end.) It’s a fun pattern and I’m sure I’ll make it again! 😉
Here’s a close up of the center! I love Kaffee dots… Must. have. more.
Thanks for visiting!!! Stitch on…
Ruthie quilts! And quilts...
