The Bees Knees
Hi. Are you enjoying the sunshine? With a bit of warmer weather the bees start stirring.......
Hexagons seem to be everywhere at the moment and as you know I think they are the bees knees. Cut from a vintage sheet in shades of yellow they reminded me of honeycomb. Teamed with a bee stamp and a hand stitched phrase an idea formed for some fabric tags for a swap I signed up to over on UK Scrappers
They are not the only winged project I've been working on. I made these butterflies to send to Deb for the Butterfly Project I hope they reach her in time to make her target of collecting 51 butterflies by her birthday. They will soon be on their way to Arizona.

So pretty! My name means 'The Bee' so I have a little soft spot for those chubby furry little things!
