The beginings of a garden...

The weeks just come flying in!  I still need to add many things to the blog:  web links in many places & the lovely One Flower Wednesday badge, blogs I visit etc..... Plus, I think the colors can obscure the fonts... but I can't remember how I set it up.... patience, patience she says to herself.  Perhaps I can spend some time this week-end rather than trying to fix it after work... (a bit later:  I messed with template... so the writing shows up now, but I hope to get my own background added.... inch by inch.)


Now to the reason I'm here.... these flowers are so very much fun to make....  I have included flower # 3 with her older sisters in a photo as they audition their future connector fabric.


I can see clearly (or more precisely NOT clearly) that I really must learn how to take photographs if I am to continue blogging..... I always thought the light was good in my studio, but the camera needs more.... (sans shadow.)  Still, I love this project....  I treat it like dessert (or like I OUGHT to treat dessert)  do my other handwork first, then relax with paperpiecing....


See more folks' Hexi flowers at Karen's Fine Blog

 Hope all's well in your world.... good luck tending YOUR garden, in whatever medium you grow.  b
