Sewing progress..........

I had church sewing circle yesterday so I did a little sewing in the morning and then again in the evening.  I have 3 rows sewn together and I have sewn the triangles that are pinned to the hexagons in the row above.  I will do a little each day so I don't get bored with it.  The fun part of course was choosing the fabrics and then seeing that they worked well together as I played at the design wall.
Did you know that Kaffe has a line of cosmetics?  They weren't available here in the US in the beginning but now they can be purchased from an Ulta store.  There is one on the way home from church so I stopped and bought the tin.  I was excited to find that it has a hinged lid.






It has hand cream, lip balm and perfume inside.  









I love the Brandon stripe on the sides of the tin too.

Great, now I have to stop and Ulta for a tin. Hexagons look terrific. I just cut gray squares to go with the 2 Kaffe charm packs I bought on MSQC daily deal. I am making all HSTs and then figuring out a layout when done.

that tin is cute, didn't know they did that - I can't use perfumed items but it is cute. I love the quilt you are working on right now and looking forward to see how you finish it.

Love the hexies.

I can see where a design wall would be really crucial in the arranging of those beauties.

Love the box!

I am SO enjoying seeing this quilt top come together. So pretty, and just gets prettier! And that is totally new to me - Kaffe cosmetics in that gorgeous box. How clever of you to find it!
