365Caws is now in its 16th year of publication. If I am unable to post daily, I hope readers who love the natural world and fiberarts will seize those days to read the older material. Remember that this has been my journey as well, so you may find errors in my identifications of plants. I have tried to correct them as I discover them. Likewise, I have refined fiberarts techniques and have adjusted recipes, so search by tags to find the most current information. And thank you for following me!

Handstitching Hexagons 2.0
Day 239: And here we go again! Given the generous donations of fabrics by friends, I embarked on another journey with hand quilting hexagons on June 5. I already have the first of 17 rows done and assembled, and am started on the next row. Instead of having two of each combination accented by "uniques," this Version 2.0 will be constructed with opposites, i.e., each hexagon has a counterpart in which the fabric used for the frame becomes the center, and vice versa. I have not yet decided if I will include any unique blocks, but since most of my quilts contain puzzles of some sort, it's very likely.
