Do you recall this? I told that it is a project I will never stitch.
Well, I was wrong…A last minute idea and I made these:
and even a little more…
This was my Christmas present for my friend Sanda. She is extremely busy and she can’t enjoy quilting as much as she would like to.
How often would you put at work the sewing machine if you have only 10 or 30 minutes to sew? So I thought a kit with everything you need for hand stitching is great for a busy quilter. So I shared my love (obsession) for hexagons and solids with Sanda.
After I shipped the package to her I started to wonder ( and worry) if she enjoys stitching by hand. But no worries anymore…
The hexagons measure 3/4”. Sanda was amazed by the small size. For me this seams to be the perfect size.
You can’t say from these pictures, but this gift idea started from my obsession for dots… that turned out in an obsession for tins…it is a whole story that I will tell you about soon…
