um, so I maybe crocheted hexagons all day yesterday.
my stepmom's aunt died and so I inherited her insanely large (and pristinely kept) yarn stash. of course it is all "vintage" acrylic, but I love the colors so it's all good. this is going to be one bright, colorful blanket!
This is my Hexagon Scarf I made from English paper piecing and quilted using my Brother Sewing Machine.Its made from over a hundred squares from ten different fabric that i chose to reflect my personality. I find this scarf represents me because I see myself a multi-faceted person with many different pieces to my personality.The fabrics are a mixture of solids, patterns, different textures and different types of fabric to show my rough side, my soft side, my creative side and my calculating side.All of these things are essential to who I am and how i show myself to the world. I chose neutral colors like gray, brown and black to reflect my down to earth persona. I found the process to be relaxing and meditative because i usually do not hand sew much anymore. I find a lot of heart goes into every sewing project and this one especially has a lot of me in it.
Champagne cake and marble cake (!) to serve almost 200 people. It had to be transported about 50 miles so it went in pieces.
A maintenance team set about their work on the enormous geometric roof of the Bio-Domes at the Eden Project, Cornwall
Started this blanket on the 2nd of March and this is my progress up to the 5th.
The project is based on this blanket...
Snapping Turtle (Ravelry link) skirt from Knitting Nature, using Tess Designer Yarns merino that BLEEDS the heck all over your hands and makes me look perpetually dirty (all that black/brown).
I love that the yarn variegates gently and the wrong side is shown, so you get spirals of color within each hexagon.

A hexagon made from a lace hanky, stitched on a puff and embellished with web stitch, french knots, bullion stitches and needle weaving.
Forgotten remnants from projects passed have been revisited and cropped down to one and a half inch hexagons, a lovely size for highligting and abstracting.
