The International Textile Festival in France this year has asked for entries from across the world.
They have asked for grandmother’s flower garden hexies – made from scraps and up-cycled materials.
They would like to receive flowers made by stitching together seven hexies. They want the hexies to be made by hand.
It’s an odd size – 5cm across (1.97 inches) so it would be best to print out the pattern. Click on this link for the PDF of the pattern and instructions. Grandmother’s flower garden – GB
The flowers are due on 30 July. According to Australia Post’s international guidelines, the flowers would need to be sent mid July.Let’s aim to hand in our flowers at the June meeting – Thursday 26 June. The guild will pay the postage.
I have a dress that is perfect for this project! Looking forward to contributing.
