Look what came out to play while I flew to Dallas!
It was luckily an uneventful trip, and I happily stitched away while talking to a very interesting lady who lives in Greensboro not too far from me.
She was interested in what I was doing, I showed her how each hexagon is cut larger than the paper foundation under it, explained why the paper is there to hold pieces in an exact shape so they fit easily together like a puzzle.
I showed her the whole process of attaching one hexagon to another, to another, and she was amazed that this project has been going on for more than 2 years now.
Meanwhile, she told me all about her family and her working farm outside of Greensboro and showed me pictures of everything she grows. It was wonderful to hear about another's passion for what they do. While I am happiest with needle thread and fabric at hand, she is happiest when she is digging in the dirt and communing with nature. I loved our chat!
This section is ALMOST done. I will finish it before I am home, and will start on the next. There are 4 of these elongated triangle shapes needed to turn my hexagon shaped medallion in to a rectangle so I an call it done.
Yes, it takes a long time to make something of this magnitude, but it is worth every stitch, every found moment of otherwise wasted sitting time. I’m happy to have it out again!
