A hexie-shaped moment of insanity?

I thought I would take note of today, and mark it with a short post. Today is the day I gave in, and started using the 1 1/2 inch hexie papers I bought about a year ago. It all started with a migraine, and the need to do something small, while inhaling a new series on Netflix. The series is called "Surface", and was released in 2005. I suspect it never made it onto NZ screens, as I can't recall seeing it.

Ten episodes down, I have a small pile of hexagonal goodness. Before I went any further I thought I should come up with a plan. That sort of goes against the grain, but after the Pansy Monstrosity (still unfinished), I have decided plans can be good. So, the current plan is to use up some 1930's style prints, each flower having a consistent centre colour or print, possibly yellow. I will find a nice white tone-on-tone for the space between the "flowers" in my version of a Grandma's garden quilt. Having decided this, I now need to find another use for some very bright orange hexies.
