**Giveaway now closed**
I was cutting out lots of pieces for a quilt the other day and realised I needed to keep track of them, my usual way of doing this involves post its, scraps of paper and pins or separate zip lock bags. None of these are particularly efficient and, let's face it, not at all cute.
When I'm doing English Paper Piecing or hand sewing I always use Clover wonder clips to hold my pieces together and they work really well. Far less fiddly than pins and a better grip than post its! It makes sense to use them for my rotary cut pieces too. I considered writing on them with a Sharpie until I remembered that I did that on my ruler and rotary cutter and it wears off pretty fast.
I looked at that little space on the wonder clips and *lightbulb moment* thought about the adorable mini hexie stickers I got from The Reset Girl!
How perfect is that?!
There's loads of those little stickers on one sheet so I wrote out the alphabet and still have room left to write numbers and/or repeat the alphabet if I want to!
Now I can organise all my cut fabric pieces ready for sewing! I also know I can throw them in a pile and they will stay that way ;)
These clips will live in a special little bag inside the bag where I keep my unlabelled wonder clips (phew! I just might finally have an excuse to make a triple zip pouch!). When Clover finally come out with printed wonder clips I would like to have some credit please, although it will be hard to make them look this sweet ;)
Regardless of whether you use wonder clips or not, the mini hexie stickers are perfect for planners, calendars or to label other things.
I have blogged about The Reset Girl shop before, I love using the stickers in my planner, and as a stationery addict I like following Cori, AKA The Reset Girl, on instagram and watching the fun videos on her YouTube channel. This is not a sponsored post, I just happen to enjoy her work and products and want to share the good stuff... so much so that I arranged a giveaway.
As she is such a sweetheart Cori is kindly offering five of you the chance to win a Mini Sheet of Hexies!

There is a lot to fill us with wonder, but for me it is the wonders of the plant world that really inspires my creativity every time. Their variation, growth, colours, resilience in all weathers, and when they die they or their offspring come back again in the next season to fill us with wonder all over again!
ReplyDeleteOh help, what have you done, Lucy! Introducing me to The Reset Girl... I don't know where to start!! I'll have to have more than one planner to give all that gorgeousness a chance!

ReplyDeleteThe lovely Fall leaves in all their bright colors to bring us joy before the winter season.
ReplyDeleteThe itty bitty stickers are just wonderful for so many things! Just love them!
ReplyDeleteIt has to be babies. Especially my youngest granddaughter who is 6 months old. I can hardly believe that 6 months ago she was a mewling, puking infant (in the words of the great Will S) and now she makes eye contact with me and smiles and laughs, stares at all around and drinks it all in and is a proper little person.
ReplyDeleteNature inspires me at any time of day or night!
ReplyDeleteAnd of course :fabric!!!

That's brilliant and those stickers are so cute. I am trying to live a mindfully and I find when I walk to and from work I'm observing my surroundings with my 'photographers' eye. And it's making me take more in and I'm constantly filled with wonder EVERYWHERE now!
ReplyDeleteSoppy or what - but the amazing brain development of two year olds! O and his friends are changing soso rapidly, the boys at the childminders can do diffdifferent things every day!
ReplyDeleteOh, and I love everything in her shop and have already spent pennies there thanks to your suggestions! (need to get better at actually using them to organise my life...)

ReplyDeleteThe beauty of a sunset fills me with wonder. Every time I see how God paints the sky, I am filled with the wonder of how everything all began. And how He loves even me. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteThe Reset Girl has such cute stickers! I love making cards and stickers and stamps make it so much fun.
ReplyDeleteOh the thing that fills me with wonder is the eye. I've studied photography a lot and no camera can match the dynamic range, focal range or colour reproduction of that marvelous creation we all take for granted. 💞💞💞
ReplyDeleteOk. The Reset Girl is new to me as I have so far resisted becoming a planner girl. But I NEED her washi rings, and love her Small Talk Strips. Lots of fun things to shop for!!

ReplyDeleteAs a hexy-addict, these are a dream come true LOL Thanks for the giveaway Lucy.
ReplyDeleteHi Lucy and thank you for the give away! Your idea for the clips is super! I haven't used mine very much because I sew the binding by machine and pins are then easier. I use them sometimes for cut pieces like you. Thank you for inspiring us to find new ways to use them. x Teje

ReplyDeleteWonder why sunsets are each different in color, warmth, pattern but always so cool to watch and breathe in.
ReplyDeleteThat is a great hack, Lucy! Very cool! What humans have achieved together regularly fills me with wonder -- electricity, roads, home heating, seriously it's pretty amazing that we are not still living in caves.
ReplyDeleteNow, I wonder why I didn't think of doing that as I just labeled another quilt with paper and pins. Great idea!!
ReplyDeleteThe hexis are so cute. I also found Mini Sheets - Hexies - Silly Color Palette but I think the Mini Sheets - Hexies - Honey Girl Color Palette is the cutest unless I were a blushing bride. kthurn@bektel.com
