HEX #1 Finish

 When I posted the #2 HEX, it reminded me that I had not shared the first HEX here on my blog.
 The flowers were done in metallic ribbon...from Vintage Vogue website. Janet has such lovely ribbons!
 These pansies were a gift, part of a wedge of doily that I removed the other part from. Added a wee little flower center with some black straight stitches.
 Some seam work...
And a tree in the center...and I'm all done! The trunk is Stem Stitch, the branches are Back Stitch, and the little wee twigs are done in small Straight Stitches with French Knots as buds. This pattern is part of the ICQC-103 Class Module.
