Yay!! my first attempt at a Dresden plate today... turned out! now i'm not saying it's perfect... but it sure did make me smile! ;) or maybe that's the vitamin D i've been taking to fight off these Portland clouds??? either way... it's a keeper!! haha
( 20" inch )
and if that wasn't enough to brighten my day... my ({ Urban } home goods - a modern swap) came today!!! and wouldn't you know that my BFF Miss Kerri gave me my most favorite new ( to me ) crafter Miss Nova!! and she killed it... like everything she does!!! I almost needed to take a xanax after opening her package... can you just die!! ;)
Miss Nova has also said she would kindly help me with a project... so, here comes your box back my dear!
and just a quick update on my possible round 3 Pillow Talk { swap } pillow... a sprinkling of Heather ross' Lightning Bug hexies...
what a colorful day!!
xo, Heather

about the dresden quilt I'm working on! Haha! Love your projects and your swap gifts. A fun day, eh?

ReplyDeleteloving those hexies!
ReplyDeleteI want that HR hexie pillow!! You must be my swap partner...;D
ReplyDeleteLove those hexies! What size are they?
ReplyDeleteAnd the Dresden plate pillow's awesome. Just package it up, pick me for your partner, and you're done. :-)
Hey, on the hexies, one suggestion: before you sew him down, turn that swimmer a quarter turn counter clockwise so he's floating in the water. Just a thought....
I haven't made a dresden plate yet, but you really make me want to!
ReplyDeleteWow-I love your pillow! It is so beautiful. Your swap goodies look fabulous too.
ReplyDeletelove, love, love!
ReplyDeleteshazammm! What a great pillow and a SUPER swap partner! I love all the embroidery hoops...especially the camera. You MUST show us how the single girl quilt turns out! xo
ReplyDeletelove the pillow...but beware of the dresden. I have found it to be somewhat addictive and have to fight the urge to put one on everything I make. It's almost as addictive as those pesky little hexes!! you totally scored on your swap, you lucky girl you. and heather ross hexes...too cute!
ReplyDeleteYou are so creative with the hexies! I love the dresden plate! It turned out beautifully! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteLOVE the pillow Heather!
ReplyDeleteLOVE the Dresden plate pillow!!! And the fussy cut hexies!!! WOW!
ReplyDeleteI love the hex. Such a perfect match of fabric and design.
