I went with a yellow theme this week....
...as I knew it would be time for the MOML and I to make our annual trek 'out the back' for our viewing of the Kowhai trees in flower.The flowers are absolutely beautiful and the huge trees make a stunning display. It was impossible for me to get a photo which shows the immensity of the sight.
I was also unable to get a photo of the birds feeding on the flowers, Tui and Kereru (wood pigeon) being the main feeders. The bird song and whooshing noises as they fly from tree to tree are wonderful to hear.
And this morning I have sewn another of my tiny hexies.. that makes two...
...and two hexies sewn together make...
...a scissor fob :-)
Cute, huh? Its amazing how much stuffing can fit into such a tiny space!!
Hope you're all having a great week, happy stitching!!
Very cute yellow hexie flowers and I love your hexie scissor fob. It's a great idea, I think I'll make one too.
ReplyDeleteWonderful post Raewyn! I love all the yellow. And, the scissor fob is so cute! Very clever.

ReplyDeleteCute, cute, scissor fob....Mmmmmm pretty:-)
oh my goodness those are tiny hexies. your tree is gorgeous
ReplyDeleteGorgeousness everywhere Raewyn, love your hexies and that tiny hexie scissor fob is just SO cute! Your kowhai trees are huge, they are so much taller than our ones down here. Ours seem smaller, but bushier all over. Don't the tuis and wood pigeons go mad on them. The wood pigeons here will eventually strip all the flowers off the whole trees. What a mess they make!
