Your hexie flower art piece is just absolutely beautiful. The fabrics you used have just enough visual dimension to make your flowers just perfect. I am glad that you liked doing the handwork. Everyone needs something 'portable' to carry with them for 'just waiting' times.

[ATTACH=CONFIG]415693[/ATTACH] I went home and continued making the flowers. I was addicted. I used jeansfabric as background. Underneed the fabric is a peace of polysterene to pin the pieces easily.
[ATTACH=CONFIG]415694[/ATTACH] It grew and grew..
Yesterday I found a piece of canvas (normally used for painting). I put my flowers on the canvas and loved it. The colours are more bright.

Today I sewed the last flowers together. Know I am thinking to add some beading. But the beading lies in my parents house so I have to wait.
This was my journey of the last two weeks.
