Hoping you are having a wonderful week. These are the first of the roses from my MIL cottage garden... How I wish I could share their perfume with you...
I am in the midst of a swirl of classes, workshops, tummy-aches and planning a birthday party this coming saturday for 40 3-4 year olds! It's our Big Boy #1's 4th birthday and we decided to include Big-Boy #2 in the festivities, even though his b-day is 4 months away... But they are excited and chose their own cakes and have been helping Mama out with the party favours... :)
So here is a quick Hexi-flower report since I have noticed that the crazier my life the more I need to stitch something in the evenings in order to unwind...
So here we have 2 "Al Fresco" and my first ever Fussy Cut hexies, after being severely smitten by some of your gorgeous specimens... I had some non-quilting Provencal material and I hope to make a nice summer cushion with them.
:)
Thinking of you!

The roses are just gorgeous and I think I can smell them from here!!!
ReplyDeleteI just LOVE the "al fresco' hexies you two are doing. The colors are wonderful, they look very patriotic to me being that they are the colors of the US flag! Also the fussy cut flowers are very nice. They will make a great summer cushion! How fun!!!
OH, MY ! such gorgeous roses... and such lovely hexies, too ;>) LOVE, LOVE both styles ! You're a champ', sweet friend ...
ReplyDeleteHmmmm, I can imagine how excited and happy the little princes must feel, right now ;>)
XOXOXOXOXOXOXO

The craziness is worth the effort when your children remember 20 years later. Or find a photo of a special b'day. Enjoy as much as possiable.

Happy Day to all.

Love your fussy cutting, those flowers look fabulous. No roses blooming here in the UK yet, yours are gorgeous though. Happy Birthday to your no.1 son for Saturday.
ReplyDeleteO, two of my favorit things. Roses (i'm planting all kinds of roses in my garden) and hexaflowers.
ReplyDeleteBoth are lovely! I hope you can keep your sanity at the birthday party! 40 little boy's, that will be a party! Maybe a hexa flower close by to stitch a stitch?..
I love your fussy cut flowers!!!! Well done Valentina. Your MIL's roses are beautiful and I am imagining the beautiful aroma from here is Aus.
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful birthday day with your darlings and I think you will sleep very well that night!
Those roses are stunning. Your fussy-cut hexie flowers are fabulous!
ReplyDeleteOoooooooooooh!! Beautiful roses, lovely hexies and oh do I know what you mean about the more hectic life is the more we need to unwind with some stitchery or woolly therapy! Good luck with the party, sounds like its going to be fun!
