Best Friends Forever

I have had Installment one for a couple of weeks now.


Best Friends Forever BOM
by Rosalie Quinlan

I have never really been "into" the framed Hexies but Rosalie's stitcheries have sold me on this one :o)
I have been playing with a couple of ideas, even drafting Paper Piecing templates for the plain hexies.  First up I was going to use a new range in at my LQS and then planned on using all my Bonnie and Camille Scraps.  

Something was stopping me. It just wasn't right so I just let the pattern sit there.
 Then on Wednesday I could hear a "scream".  
Yep "Scrumptious" was letting out an almighty scream :o)


Once the decision was made, it was so easy to start cutting :)
This pattern is "quilt as you go" and I need 60+ of the plain hexies plus the embroidered ones. I have started on the plain ones.


Here are the first 15.
This line of fabrics is truly living up to its name :o)


Now to pick some coordinating threads.

Hugs Sharon

    Your fabric choice is great and the framed hexies look to be perfect to frame the stitcheries.

    I'm going to audition fabrics for mine this weekend and if I can't find anything that screams at me I think I'll be heading sown the scrumptious path too as it really looks scrummy!
