I now have a total of 144 completed flowers! I am estimating that I need at least 550 flowers -- so The Youngest is going to have to wait for a looooooooong time before she gets it! Here's a picture of how big they are when they are done (and the photo is upside down....but mind you, we all know how to read the ruler upside down!)
Birthday Girl on Canada Day was my Mum! She turned 81 yesterday! This is a peek at her flowers in her back yard. Her yard is so sheltered and is nice and private! So great to sit out there with a nice refreshing Tim Horgon's Cappuccino and have a great chat! It's exactly what we did after we took her to dinner for her birthday celebration!
I've been reading all the lovely comments for my giveaway! Thank you, thank you, thank you! I will be drawing on Friday and notifying the winners! You don't have to do hexie's to enter..I'm just celebrating my 100th post and wanted to pass on something to my readers! You all are the one's that encourage me when my "quilt" days are bad or when my motivation is waning!
I'm been extra busy this week as well with a gift for a baby shower this weekend! As Friday here in Calgary is starting off with the Calgary Stampede Parade, I've taken the day off. Half of which we had off due to the parade heading down our street where I work! I'll be working hard getting the rest of my quilt project completed and hopefully upload it so you can all see!
Head back to my 100th post and enter for my giveaway, if you haven't already!
Happy quilting everyone! See you for sure on FRIDAY!
Yee Haw! Stampede season is here!

Such pretty hexies. Your mum's garden is gorgeous!
Love the hexies! Mum looks happy in her garden.
Lovely flowers - both the real ones and the hexie flowers you made. That will make a lovely quilt. Happy Birthday to your Mom.
