One Flower Wednesday

One more flower to add to my garden. This one needed 2 petals sewn on. That was easy! Go to Karen's blog and click on the links to see a lot more pretty flowers.

I picked up a Better Homes and Garden magazine called 100 ideas--Flea Market Style. Inside the magazine was a picture of this quilt. I like it a lot because it is so different and unique.

With Passion,

Love the pink hexies - so yummy! That star quilt is very different, I like it a lot. Not enough to make hexies, though. LOL.

Carrie,

Thanks for visiting me and leaving the comments. I think it's absolutely wonderful you are making a signature quilt for your son's wedding. I look forward to seeing the pictures.

What a cute flower!

Pretty pink flower Carrie! Excellent quilt in the magazine. So many interesting things you can do with hexagons. I love the diamond hexagon pattern too.

Your flower is so pretty. That looks like a good magazine, I really like the star pattern.

I'm really enjoying seeing hexes around blogland at the moment. A few times, I've nearly been tempted especially when they're as pretty as yours.

I see that you have been bitten by the hexie bug too. Your pink hexie flower is beautiful and will make a stunning quilt.

Hexies, hexies everywhere! I love them. Your pink one is so sweet.

Now there is a flower that looks right at home in the garden! Looks like that quilt has come full circle and is in vogue again!
