Slow stitching on a Sunday

I've been working on appliqueing my hexie flowers to a white-on-white background square this week.  Six of them are finished, with three more to go.  I'm going to make a little doll quilt out of them, using a green and a pink floral for sashing and cornerstones.


The aqua flower was finished up yesterday, and the purple one is prepped for stitching today.  

A couple more to go, and I can start adding the sashing!

And some good advice I found:


Have a lovely Sunday!

Some thread and a small pair of scissors too. It may be horribly hot scorcher of a summer but it is certainly spring in full bloom in your studio.
