YOU reminded me I need to ask my son for the cord for my camera to fit into my computer... actually need one to go into my Kindle... He was going to send it to me...

Really anxious to get started on some Hexies... Oh just found out I am going to be a great grandma again, not once my Granddaughter is 12 weeks along and they are going to adopt a little Chinese baby...

Well since everyone is showing their hexies here is mine. Chicken in a basket is a very cute idea. Love the little hexies. My hexies are 1 3/4" huge compared to 3/8 " and 3/4". Ladybug did you hand quilt the baby quilt? Love the pantie purse and angel ornament.

I will be sending out my pkg tomorrow. My FIL is out of the hospital and doing quite well.

Yes I hand quilt most of my quilts, the only thing I don't hand quilt are table runners and place mats... Love he looks of hand quilting ...

Congratulations, Great Grandma to be! Am I understanding this right? They started out to adopt a Chinese baby and she ended up pregnant, too? No matter how it worked out, congrats are in order! Five of our kids are adopted, two from Vietnam. I can't tell you how many times I heard stories of folks who were having trouble conceiving only to begin the journey through adoption AND end up pregnant. I am a big adoption advocate, I am so happy to hear of your coming great grand babies! Woo Hoo! :D

Rosemary, so happy about the baby too. what a wonderful surprise. soooo, what are you making??? any pictures yet?

Pat and Dwina I love the hexie patterns you both made your hexies into. I love them done that way.

That is a really pretty chicken pincushion and needle case with the bowl from MelanieLynn. I love the chickens too. I have a beautiful little white chicken with the regular chicken colors. They are so handy.

Rosemary that is a pretty baby quilt, and your goodies as a get well package are really nice.

I still make hexies too. I have tried different sizes. I don't like working with those bigger than 2" or those smaller than 1". lol...

I have a routine now where whatever I am working on when I finish cutting I then check to see if any scraps are big enough for the postage stamps and cut those, then below that and they go into my zip lock bag to save for my doggie beds stuffing. So I waste nothing this way.

Went to see my dad today. He is doing well. Had a good visit.

Take care everyone.
