They are the cutest little houses - how could I resist? It took me aaaages to finally get round to making one for my swap partner, the talented Linda.
Linda's favourite colours are blue, yellow, green, pink and purple, and I'd also noticed she'd recently tried her hand at some hexies... I wanted to do something a bit unique for her, so the idea of making the "roof" section out of hexies was born. They look a bit like tiles and eaves don't you think? I didn't like my selection of numbers available so the front door got a bell instead, and it smells nice too as I popped some dried lavender in with the stuffing. :)
It was hard to draw a line on where to stop with so many possible things to add or enhance. It's endless!
I hope you love it as much as I do Linda!

Joining in here.
I certainly do love it, it is so bright and cheerful and I love the roof, the bell and the little bird. Thank you so much Leonie
ReplyDeleteI made some of these for Christmas gifts last year, they are just so sweet. I love the hexi roof.
ReplyDeleteThe bell on the front door is inspired as are the hexies - gorgeous!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea to do hexies on the roof- you really are on a roll with them at the moment aren't you!?
ReplyDeleteAhhh - so this is what the scary tiny hexies were all about. Well done you the house is adorable, I particularly like the little bell. I'm not surprised Linda is thrilled.
ReplyDeleteit's adorable!!! you picked such lovely fabrics. i saw it over on "creative spaces" and could immediately tell from the thumbnail that you had something special :)
ReplyDeleteSo, so adorable! I have always loved the look of little house softies, and the hexies for the roof look fab. Great job!
