In my last post, I mentioned that I didn't like the hexies I had finished, and this is what they looked like. The more of them I made, the more irritated I became with the outcome.
So then I decided to use a smaller hook, take out one of the double crochets in the clusters, so it's more like a V-stitch, and I added a color...These are the same color combinations and everything, but I like the smaller one much better!
I guess I should have made another one, but I was so excited about how cute they were that I had to stop and share!
So now, I just have to decide if I want to connect them with the navy border, or without it. I am really feeling like I might try to connect them without the border. That will give me more color options.... let's see what happens!
I think it looks lighter and brighter without the navy border even if I'm partial to navy blue, as you can tell by my bag :)

Hi BumbleBri. I love your little boy hexies! If your taking votes I think I like it without the navy border as well... So happy to see you at Tangled Happy. Thanks for your nice comment. Loved reading you About Me section. I'm sure many of us in the blogosphere can relate. :)
ReplyDeleteHi BumbleBri, it seems the weather in the US has been pretty nasty lately... still having those tornados over there? I always remember Dorothy and Toto when I hear about them...
ReplyDeleteIt's been really nice around here this Spring, we had a lot of rain in the winter and a few weeks back there was a sudden hail storm but now all is back to the usual sunny weather. And I love the sun...
Thank you for stopping by! :)
