Last night I joined Cheryll and friends for FnwFs and decided it was time to cut out , visoflex and buttonhole stitch the rest of 21 sets of eyes for the Piggy Quilt....
from the tiniest for the chicken
to the bigger ones for the piggies.....
after completing them I made the blocks for this months Aussie Hero mystery blocks......
Then when I got home it was lovely to join Chooky for her Zoom meeting..
The 'eyes' have it--for today--I love eyes on animals and people but oh sometimes they are very hard to make and get them on and still be nice and round or oval shaped--you did a great job, though! and your flower hexies are so pretty and look like spring!!!
ReplyDeleteluv, di
oh my those eyes are tiny!
ReplyDeleteThose eyes look very small and fiddly. Pretty hexies. It was nice "catching up" yesterday via the screen.
ReplyDeleteIt was good to see you in the meeting.
ReplyDeleteLove your Hexes, very pretty colours.
Miss piggy & her friends will "see" a lot better now...looks great...
ReplyDeleteAnd your hexies look very pretty... xox
It was lovely to catch up with you yesterday Maria. Oh those eyes are tiny. Love your hexies. Hugs, xx
ReplyDeleteThat is a fiddly job getting all those eyes done. Was lovely to see you on Saturday, you did well with the hexies.
ReplyDeleteButtonhole stitching those tiny chicken eyes does not sound like a fun job! Very cute chicken though.
ReplyDeleteThose little eyes are something else... well done...

ReplyDeletethose eyes are sooooo tiny..........
It was so lovely to spend time with you yesterday in the Zoom meeting...your hexies are so pretty...
ReplyDeleteThose eys look fidly - especially by machine! I wouldnt even contemplate it! You had a nice sociable day - sadly had to miss out on the zoom again - life! xx
ReplyDeleteYes those eyes are tiny, and fiddly to sew. Sorry to miss you on zoom.
ReplyDeleteThose eyes are a pain to do - necessary but fiddly.
ReplyDeletegreat to catch you at Chookys- its always fun.
You fitted lots into your day Maria. The eyes make a big difference to the critters even though they can be fiddly to do! Cute hexies, too. Sorry I missed you while zooming - maybe next time?!
ReplyDeleteEye surgery on birds is even more demanding than on pigs. You must have steady hands to succeed, and you did very well!
ReplyDeleteHow daunting to have to make 21 sets of eyes! A true labor of love. I always love seeing all your projects.
ReplyDeleteThe eyes look so fiddle, but add great personality to the critters. Your Aussie blocks look nice. Well done. Love your hexi flowers.
ReplyDeleteThose eyes are so small and oh so many of them. I would have waited and done them all together too!
