Mini Hexie Love

You may have noticed how I've been a little obessed with hexies lately (No!) well imagine my delight when I found a quilt card for download on the Silhouette that was made up of hexagons. Happy.

I made a couple of cards using it (sorry no photos I forgot! bad blogger) and then started thinking how perfect it would be to use the cut outs with fabric. The size I cut out are much smaller than the 1" ones I've been using for my quilt, you can see the difference in size. They measure 5/8" which is 1.5cm. Can you believe people make whole quilts using ones this small. How would you have the patience....
......so I had a little experiment and came up with this.
a mini hexie bag charm. Think I'm going to be making more :-)

Very cute keychain and in red too, ONE of my fav colours (there are manY). Thanks for the info on the butterfly. Sound about right for area and height above sea level. Clever you!
