Flowers and Some Baskets

Good morning and welcome to my new followers! 

This week I've finished one hexagon flower.
I've also finished a few Trick or Treat baskets from When the Cold Wind Blows by Barb Adams and Alma Allen. 


I've been a bit under the weather the past week, but I ventured outside yesterday when I heard the Blue Angels practicing for the Mount Comfort Air Show not far from here.  We live just close enough that we can see them as they make their turn around to head back to the airport and hear the roar of the F-16 engines. 

While I was outside, I looked out back and noticed that my peony bushes were in bloom.  I love the color of these.

You can go over to Karen's blog and take a look at all of the hexagon flowers that were made this week. 

I hope you are all finding some time to stitch this weekend! 


Thanks for stopping by!

  1. Your flowers and baskets are great. I have made one basket so far and you are making want to prep a few more. I noticed that you incorporated the basket handle into the basket instead of separately. BRILLIANT!

  15. Don't you just love those dark peonies? I could have a whole yard full of peonies. Any every other flower for that matter.
