One a day - week 1


Tuesday tallies...I'm up to hexagon 21 for my one a day project.  I started doing one a day on Saturday - adding 3 to my growing pile.  Doing one a day is exactly what I need to get me working on this project that's been left, abandoned in my work basket.  It's African hexagon flowers.  I love making them but got distracted by other things - other craft and day to day life. I'm hoping to have the project finished in a couple of weeks.  My  next step will be to start joining as I go.

Here's my nice little stack of hexagons.


And all of them in their colourful beauty...the bottom three are those I've done since crocheting one a day.


My plan is to join them up into a rectangular pillow or maybe a hexagon.  I'm still searching blogs and flickr for some pillow inspiration.

Head over to Gingerbread Girl to find more one a day projects.  Some are now complete!

    I love those rectangular cushions made with these, that sounds a great idea, it would look beautiful, or maybe a bolster type cushion with rounds on the end......

    Oooo, you're all very nice. Making them up into a bolster cushion is a good suggestion. I must track down the original photo I found on flickr that inspired me to start the african flowers in the first place.

    Hi, Lori. The priscilla bear didn't take to long at all to make. I think you could do it in a day if you just sat and did nothing else. I've made the hook holder too if you look on my 27th August post, that was nice and quick too. Deb xxxxx
