Spring Flowers and Hexagons.

 

 I love Spring flowers. Daffs are great but freesias are better cause they smell so divine. I have many colours but these are among the first to bloom. The old cream Burtonii are so powerfully scented they fill the room.

  No scent but a bright display by the kakabeak under the cherry.
 I am still finding things that got frost damage even some of the freesia buds. So I doing quite a bit of pruning back to live growth on plants.


 Meanwhile since the knitting is finished for now I an making hexagons to enlarge a quilt by sewing on an additional row( s ).

 This shows a finished pile; a ready to hand sew pile and  one with the wonderful little plastic quilting/ sewing clips. Ideal for holding down mitered corners here.  Also good as a portable sewing project to take to club or sewing group.

 Below is the quilt I'm adding to. Made in 2017.
