Hand Piecing Hexagon Flowers



 
A test hexagon flower which I stamped and hand pieced.  I soaked the completed piece in water for an hour or so and find the stamp marking lighten considerably (which is excellent) and there was no smearing onto the fabric.  Pretty happy with the results and now to work on lovely cotton fabrics :)

Not too sure how the pressing should be done, this method seemed easy.

Fabric Stamping & Cross Stitch smalls



I was inspired by Robyn's hexagons and thought I'd try out the hand piecing method as opposed to English Paper Piecing.  Got these 1" hexagon rubber stamps made for RM10 and am trying them out on calico.  I am using regular Artline stamp pad to test if the ink smudges when washed.
