Now that I'm working again I have lunchbreaks so I've been handstitching. The second hexagon bag outer layer is finished. This one is all Fig Tree fabrics - they are all repeated 3 and four times (I don't have 260+ Fig Tree fabrics). Last night I prepared a third lot of hexagons for another bag.
This one is black and white with a little touch of grey and red. The girls in my stitching group gave me a good selection of black and white scraps to add to my own. About time I tried making up one of these bags I suppose ... maybe tomorrow.
Spoke to the travellers last night as it was Elizabeth's birthday yesterday. They are having the most wonderful time and have booked a little side trip to Rome for a couple of days next week.

Look at all those hexagons! WOW! They are all wonderful, I can't believe you have so many already.
Dinosaur quilt is adorable.
Really love that quilt Lynda...you are do a great job on the hexies...xx
So many hexies.... 3 bags, and they are all going to be beautiful. Look forward to seeing how they finish up.
Dinosaurs are cool! Loving the look of the hexagon bags.....cant wait to see one finished.
Hi Lynda! Your hexies are looking great. I'm wondering how you're going to make the bag up. I have this pattern, and it seems you're going to change the construction a little, having joined the panels and the base pieces? You're way ahead of me with your hexies, but hopefully I'll catch you up in the school hols :) Blaze the trail Lynda, I'll follow in your expert footsteps :) Ros x
The Dinosaur Quilt is just fabulous.. I am sure a little boy is going to LOVE it..
Sew many hexies and you are doing a great job stitching them into bags...
