Flowers and more



My Favorite Hibiscus



I do hope that every one had a lovely Easter....and that the chocolates did not do too much damage to the waistline...It certainly didn't damage mine....I have not got one...!!!!!!. :)


The Sun is shining this morning and here in Melbourne it is a beautiful Autumn Morning...I was out walking my 2 furry babies earlier this morning and it was a real pleasure.


One day last week we were out for a drive and I just happened to stop by a favorite Quilt shop.....Well...!!!! I could not drive straight by now could I? so went in and just bought a little selection.


And so....THIS became THESE 4 new flowers for my Hexigarden .I have been"planting my flowers " into my garden this past week and now have 27 of my 3/4 inch flowers blooming.



I have a total now of 131 flowers made. Estimate I need 255
Every flower is different...Hope I can go the distance..!!!


One Flower Wednesday is a great group to belong to and is Kindly hosted by the lovely Karen at Journey of a Quilter. Why not pop over and have a look round We may meet up?

Until next time...take care


Happy Stitching

  11. Go Kate Go!!! You're doing great. I think I have about 65 flowers. I bought some white fabric tonight that I'm going to use between the flowers. I'll start putting them together soon and then decide how many I need. If you need more fabric, would you consider a trade? It looks like our tastes are similar.
