Hexipuffs are taking over! I am making a Beekeeper's Quilt (Tiny Owl Knits pattern, check it out on her website or Ravelry), and at first glance I thought it was going to be a loooot of work, what with weaving ends and sewing and all. But it's not! These wee hexagons are so quick, so easy and so much fun to do!
This is what I've got so far, using charts for embroidery that people have posted on Ravelry.
So from the top going clockwise we have a charcoal one with Cassiopeia on it, one lilac one in leftovers from a dress for Anne, one in Socks That Rock courtesy of Julie, one in merino/silk leftovers (8 strands - it's VERY thin), one in grey with embroidered forget-me-nots (and I just noticed that it's upside down in the pic, ooops!), one in my looovely Koigu leftovers and in the middle a plain grey one.
I did the decrease part wrong on all but the Socks That Rock one (well, the second one - Julie let me do two and the first one has the mistake in it as well, but it's not worth redoing any of them. Learning curve :) ).
PS. In Dreams is finished, all I have left to do is block it and weave the 2 ends.... Yay!
