Best Friends Forever BOM
Installment One

With the lack of "quality TV" last night here in Australia I managed to get Installment one completed.


Each installment only calls for 8 of the other Hexies but being I have changed the layout I made 18!
I am also planning on making 3 half hexies to fill the gaps at the top.

I have had a few emails about the coloured threads I am using. 
Here is the list, they are all DMC.
958, 954, 962, 151, 604, 3812, 3851, 3766, 3810,
3854, 817, 601, 3861, 703, 472
And the fabric is "Scrumptious" by Bonnie and Camille.
This line is released later this year but if you are lucky you can find some
pre-release samples floating around.

Now, I must go. We had a water pipe explode in the bathroom yesterday afternoon.
About 5 mins before I was supposed to leave to pick Miss Lily up from Kinder.
I do not want to think about what things would be like if it happened 5 minutes later and no one was home.
It might have only taken the Plumber 10 minutes to fix but I am still washing towels and
blankets :(

hugs Sharon

  14. great hexies, trying to picture what size they are, the camera can be misleading. What luck you were home when the pipe decided to burst., dread to think what you would have come home to.

  17. Gorgeous hexies I love this project. Don't very much like the sound of a burst pipe. Did they have to break the wall to get to it? SOunds very messy

  20. What Sharon?? You aren't rivetted by the all encompassing Julia/Kevin epic?? And surely you have been glued to the box watching the nail biting State of Origin? And there's also Wimbledon..... So much to choose from. Sigh. Guess that's why the DVD has been getting a work out here. LOL
