To Pin or Not to Pin

I am on a Quilting Retreat with the guru (Mom) and our friend Lisa. Everyone has to teach something! I asked Lisa to teach me English paper piecing with hexagons. I got a lesson on this from Becky at Appliqué Bee last week as well. Both are pros and I like to hear how everyone does it so I can develop my own technique. After Becky's lesson, I made a perfect little hexie. Just the one:)20120713-232427.jpgTonight after Lisa's lesson, I made this flower! The hexies are just an inch...this is definitely the only time I plan on working this small!!20120713-232324.jpgSo I decided to make it a pincushion! A fun night and a finished product (except for some hand sewing by the guru tomorrow...)!! I love it!20120713-232717.jpgAnd fun scissor fabric back!20120713-232741.jpgHaving so much fun! Wish you were here Sarah:)UPDATE: Finished! The guru has sewn her up!!20120714-093018.jpgxo LC
