What’s on my Design Wall August 9, 2011
Posted By drsao on August 7, 2011
I will be launching myself toward the West Coast (CALIFORNIA) shortly so part of the DESIGN WALL (DESIGN FLOOR – AIRPORT SCENE) will be hexagon production. I am going full strong on my SCRAPPY VERSION OF GRANDMOTHER’S FLOWER GARDEN…..remember this?
I am thinking of putting a border on this one similar to this one (I got this online from My Sunshine Cottage and I really really like it!)
GMG with BORDER
Before I am launched into the skies I may make a few more bean bags…..I am enamored with the Bal A Vis X program and need some bean bags for school! GOOGLE BAL A VIS X if you haven’t heard of this….it is a great RIGHT BRAIN LEFT BRAIN program – and fun for KIDS OF ALL AGES!
And TA DA….this is something new I am playing with….not sure where I am going or what I will call it – but it uses my 1 1/2 inch squares. Scrappy Postage Stamps seems a little boring for a name of a quilt…..but that is what I have so far!!!
Have fun sewing everyone!
Love the hexie’s – I think you are awesome to take on a grandmother’s flower garden.
Lucky Sevens – what I immediately thought of for your postage stamp quilt and happens to be my lucky number.
Enjoy your trip – I know you will stay busy. Judy C in NC where I am sure the humdidity went to 1000% this weekend.
Judy – I like it – LUCKY SEVENS – because that is my lucky number too. If I decide to make all the blocks with shades of blue I could then call it MY LUCKY BLUE SEVENS!! 🙂

Your hexies are great. I love hexies and are perfect to take a long. We’ve had lots of family things and quick trip over the last few weeks so my hexies are getting some attention too.
Great scrap buster block!
Have a great trip Shirley Anne. I wish I was going with you. Love the hexies but way more than I want to do! I look forward to seeing the finished product. I agree about the border… nifty.
Hexagons – I am seeing more and more hexagons and I think this means they will soon be in my quilting! YIKES – something else to do!
I love the flower gardens that have the same center and that winding path, so charming. Have a great trip to CA!
