Just One More...

Our family had a car trip on Sunday for a couple of hours which was a great opportunity to do a little stitching. I'm thankful that I'm able to stitch in the car and not feel sick - amazing what you can get done.

I took along my last cut out hexagon flower to finish. So nice to have another one done!

So now there are 13 little blooms to my collection. Slowly growing as life gets so busy with school age children and running a family business.......and also having too many projects on the go (lol).

Its great to catch up on everyone's progress too on the blog. Always so nice.

Now to cut some more hexagons!

...and the garden keeps on growing

My Mom had to go through surgery a few weeks ago and I spent  much time at the hospital accompanying her. And my garden hasn't stopped growing since then.

Until next time.

Hey All

Hello all. My name is Teresa and I live in Alabama. I'm married to an Army Recruiter and we have one son. Our son is 7 years old and was recently diagnosed with ADHD. To kind of cope with the stress and depression I've been battling, I started sewing and quilting. 


I'm so excited to be new member of The Vignette Hexagons. I've only been sewing since fall of last year and hexagons were where I started. This site is one of the first sites that I found when I was searching the web for advice. All of you inspired me so much with all of your beautiful hexagons. 


Here are a few hexies that I've done recently: 

This last hexie caddy I found from a wonderful website. http://pennyshands.blogspot.com/2010/08/hexie-caddy-tutorial.html

I'm really looking forward to all the hexies that you all share. I'll post some more soon. :)

My first flowers

I have just been accepted and this is my first contribution to this blog. My name is Debora and I am from Spain. I have been cross-stitching for years and I have just discovered patchwork and its many possibilities and just love it. I am doing my flowers out of scraps of fabric, so it's going to be a very coloured quilt. This first quilt will be for my daughter Maria, aged 13.

These are my two first flowers. I have some more in process. Will show you soon.

Hope you like them.

One flower

This month i have made one flower. My flowergarden is not growing fast, but slowly we come to the end too.

2 flowers

This month i have made 2 flowers. 2 flowers in bright colours, colours that i like.

all done

My daughters quilt is finished,and ready to go to Australia.Nickys partner is in the UK at the moment,and will take it back with him.

I took the picture early morning,and the light caught it a bit. Here is Nickys quilt and my quilt together.

I said I would never make another one,but now my younger daughter Natalie tells me she would like one..... Hope you all had a lovely Easter.Laura xxx
