Was a REALLY hot day in Lisbon. It was also Grandparents's Day, so it was very busy for us.
But I still managed to be very productive regarding my crafts, I started quilting my second project (the red and white quilt) and I finaly managed to get to the patchwork store and buy some goodies. I finaly have proper needles and thread, and I bought some lovely fabrics for my collection.

As far as my hexagons, I haven't really made a lot of progress, because I actually had to start all over again as I wasn't properly securing them and so I felt they would unravel when I started sewing them together. So now they are much more stable. About 65 of them :)

Overall it was a great, hot, summer day! Today I hope I'll have a quiet one so I can really do the things I want to do without setbacks. How was your day cyberspace? :)
Hello there! I have just popped over to see how you are getting started. I have joined Texas Freckles and although I haven't got anything to blog about yet, I do feel to be addicted to those little hexies! Yours look very vibrant, I think I have too many matches - think I will have to discard some to make my collection more interesting and vibrant ..... just like yours!

Hi Val! My very first comment! Melanie from Texas Freckles sure changed a lot of people's lives, mine included, she inspired me to start. I am totaly addicted to hexagons but fabric diversiy is also a huge problem for me, and I have very little resources around here, I'm actually considering cuting up old clothes ;) I have no idea how I'll combine them, right now I am more focused on them being fabrics I really like and decide what to do later. Good luck with your projects and thank you for stoping by!
