Hexie Notebook Cover

Today is the 2nd Tuesday of the month!  And that means Scraptastic Tuesday!

It's a while since I've linked up with Nicky and Leanne. But I've actually had some time recently to play with hexie scraps!

This notebook cover fits an A5 spiral notebook and uses 36 English Paper Pieced 1" hexies, the perfect size for using up those smaller scraps.

I also experimented a little with some Aurifil 12wt wool thread.  I like the way these thicker threads sit proud on the Essex Yarn Dyed Linen.

These notebook covers come together really quickly once the hexie panel is made. And they are a 'go to present' when one of the kids needs a last minute gift for a friend. 

So what are you making with your scraps?

Too soon for Christmas?

No?

That's good!

Because I have some Christmas coasters to show you!

Inspiration for these coasters found here.

My friend and I worked on these foundation pieced coasters together! (I couldn't find templates for them, so I drafted my own patterns.) Don't you think they would cheer up any coffee table at Christmas-time!

I'm getting my Christmas class samples ready for that moment when we realise that Christmas isn't that far away after all, and creative panic sets in!!

And if you need to stock up on supplies, don't forget about my lush Essex yarn dyed linen for sale in my Etsy shop, now available in half metre cuts.

Pop on over and grab yourself a bargain!

Happy Christmas weekend!
