Winterse Hexjes Week One

Blog hopping earlier today I came across a hexie mystery at Annelies' blog. The mystery is run by AnneLiefs in the Netherlands and is called Winterse Hexjes (Wintry Hexagons)



I just felt my fingers itch to stitch *lol* so I signed up for the pattern clues. The pattern emails are in dutch, but the pictures say enough for a non-dutch speaking person to understand


The mystery has been up and running for a while, but I'm gonna go at it in my own tempo and enjoy every step of the way. 

My sewing room is being used as storage for everything I haven't found a place for since moving, so it is still a complete mess. However I knew where I have stashed some Tula Pink fabrics, and I think I'm gonna have some fun playing with those in this project.


The hexies used in the pattern is 1", but in the mess here in my flat I was only able to find some packets of 3/4" papers, and I don't mind down scaling a bit.

Happy to be stitching something again! And once again linking up with Kathy's quilt and Slow Sunday Stitching.

Nice hexies, they look good in those colours. I know what you mean about mess. My attic room is like that, it's because you can close the door and not look at it all the time. I need to get it sorted before the youngest comes back and wants his bed!!!

There` a part on the emails that you can translate but reverts back if wish to print off. I was disappointed I could not do that but at least could read in English. I`m still sorting what amounts needed while waiting to get to town for my hexagon papers. Happy Stitching.
