the Magic Beast Cloth continues...

I've stopped trying to plan the whole cloth. Doing that just makes me put it aside and go on to something else. So I am now just adding sections that inspire me and will try to connect them all with embellishment.

 I like the idea of extending a design into another section with applique and embroidery.

I might be adding some beasts in amongst the hexagons...a kind of playground. maybe just hints of beasts as my drawing skills are not that great.

And just a reminder for those of you who observe Daylight Savings Time, set your clocks back one hour tonight.

I like the flower extension and those hexagons meandering along!

yes the flower extending towards the hex's is going to be great...i also really like that red print where you have it sitting. the colors of the hex's just sing out loud!

I really like what you are doing. I also gave up on planning a whole cloth and decided to work small and join them together. Thanks for the reminder. I don't mind "fall back" but I really dislike "spring forward"! Wishing you a beautiful weekend.

Deanna, we are on the same wavelength -- I feel the same about my big project -- and I like that you're going beyond planning so much. I'm so tired of thinking and thinking and more thinking. I like your hexies, I've been making a few, too -- do you have an easy way to make them -- I'm just using the iron around a form, burn my fingers a lot! The flower idea is a good one!

I love what you are doing, I find this cloth so refreshing. It is nice to work on something without rules or schemes but setting free our imagination.
