These could very well turn into a new obsession for me. If you saw my last post, you know I had begun experimenting with doodling and painting hexagons to be used in English Paper Piecing.
I started another, larger rosette. Just one colour added this time. here is what some of the pieces look like before the edges were folded...not a very pretty sight!
ah...but here they are looking much better.
I began this rosette with a specific design planned (made up of a total of 19 hexagons) but suddenly realized that by moving and rotating the bits about, many other designs could be created with those same 19 hexagons....so I did just that to get a visual on the other possibilities before I thread my needle.
So,my rosette is ready to be stitched....but... you will have to wait for my next post to see which one I chose.
I plan to post a detailed tutorial of my process in the near future......if I provide a design....would you like to give it a try?

Definitely would like to try. Every single version is stunning - it seems a shame to actually stitch them together! Lol!
I can't wait! Thanks for the opportunity to doodle around with you 😁.
A resounding YES...I definitely want to try this! I am enthralled. I am most intrigued with knowing how you create the designs and how they are going to work together.
Think you're on to something here! Love all the different designs.
these are awesome and hell yes, I'd like to see the process!
Wow! Wow! and Wow again. Are you kidding! Of Course I'd like to give this a try! When do we start?

YES, YES, YES...you know I'm a hexie nut! Your take on this simple form is amazing!!! You are truly an artist!!
I would love to give it a try. It would be just the excuse I need to go out and get fabric painting supplies. You’ll tell us what you use?
Great idea Jill! I love all the 'possibles' too.
Love the variations.I would love to give a go.
I have been making hexie quilts for years and years but never thought to draw on the fabrics. Your designs are really amazing! I would love to play with you!
Brilliant! You have just given me an idea too. Many thanks and Merry Christmas to you and your family.
ABSOLUTELY!!! BTW, I love 'em all!
