We had snow yesterday. It snowed for about 15 minutes and then the sun came out but it was only 38. This morning was low 30's and now it's warmed up to 60 and maybe 70 tomorrow. I saw a city north of Syracuse, NY had quite a bit of snow. Not looking forward to that.
I took my hexagon ruler that measures 2 1/4" and then added 1 inch all around and that is 4". I think I'm going to just add a half an inch and try and make some small coasters
Everyone have a great day.

This is the wonderful package I received from Pat. She said the pc was a new pattern. It turned out so pretty! I am also a recipient of one of her beautiful doilies. She included candy, sticky notes, some nice lemon smelling soap, and a calendar. Thank you so much Pat. I love everything!!!

Betty what handsome boys. Pat the mat is just a hexagon for the center and then you sew on strips of fabric. start with every other side. then go back and do the 3 sides you skipped. Then add as many rounds as you want doing the same way. This one has about a 7" hexi center. The purple one has about a 6" center with all different scraps of purples around it.They are so much fun and easy to make. I use them all around the house. I have a hexi shaped table in my living room.Let me know if you need better directions.
Oh my. That hexagon mugrug
is beautiful . I'm trying it in a second after I get off here. In love!!!

Karen that is a beautiful package you received from Pat. That is a beautiful pincushion, and needle case. The doily is so pretty, and the other goodies, especially the soap with the crochet cloth. I would someday like to learn to make soap.
Karen those are such pretty pins on your pincushion too.
