In February this year StitchMAP started a year long challenge of Hexagons. Here are my designs and some of the other designs which I've completed as part of the challenge. Along with these designs there would be two other designs to choose from most months.
February, March and April's Hexagons.
'A' with Woven Silk ribbon Roses - February challenge. (not my design), others that were offered was a Celtic knot garden (loads of French knots) and another embroidery flower motif.
March's Hexagons was Flowers - The Australian Wattle and Gum nuts were my design for the Challenge and a Cross stitch rose was also offered.
April's challenge was an Umbrella, Topiary Trees and a beaded Strawberry motif, (not my designs)
August was my Aboriginal inspired Kangaroo and Gecko.
The Gecko is also from a larger embroidery piece, Twines in Nature.
There are still a couple of my designs to be released, but since their still to come we want to be a surprise, so I can't show them here.
