I have been sewing Hexagons together to make a small travel bag.
 The link to the free pattern is: https://www.redhandledscissors.com/2014/07/tutorial-pincushion-english-paper-piecing-travel-kit/  Having a practice go at making the bag as I may make some for a few Christmas swaps that are coming up.

Going back a few weeks ago, I received a lovely present from Lin Tarrant who lives in France.  A lovely card and 2 Hexagon flowers.  It was Lin’s turn to swap Hexagon flowers with me.  Lin and I are in the same Facebook group. 
  





  These were also in the parcel that I received from Lin.  A small handmade bag, 3 different cottons, 2 plastic containers of beads, some body wash and a small handmade pin cushion, also ribbon. They are all amazing and beautiful.  Thank you very much Lin.  I will treasure them all.
