This week I got no stitching done at all. None, nada, nil, nothing. But that's okay … maybe next week. :)
In lieu of actual progress, I thought I'd share a picture of my design plan for my Batik Hexie Blanket (aka Grandmother's Flower Garden Quilt).
I have 2 teal blue batiks, 2 purple batiks, and 2 green batiks, so there will be more variety in the actual quilt than is in my sketch. The white spaces on my design won't actually be white, but will be a navy batik with a flower pattern on it. The majority of the quilt will be the bright royal blue batik hexie flowers that make up the background.
These will eventually be the hexes/fabrics in my quilt:
Just thinking about what it will look like when its finished makes me smile. I'm here for a long time and a good time. :)
Linking up with Jessica for the Monday Morning Star Count at Life Under Quilts.
That is going to be stunning. I really like your color choices
