it goes in and out like anything

There is something very satisfying about things that fit exactly- maybe I've been influenced by reading Winnie the Pooh at an impressionable age, the part where Piglit gives Eeyore a deflated balloon for his birthday and Eeyore is pleased to find that it exactly fits the empty honey jar that Pooh has given him. "It goes in and out like anything!"

I am slightly obsessed with making hexagons from all my leftover bits of fabric. I've just worked out that I've been making them for a year, and if I keep going I might have enough for a king-sized quilt by the time I'm about 94!
It's very satisfying to use up all those little bits (the hexagons use pieces two and a half inches square), and of course they fit together 'like anything'..... but really the best bit is my little hexagon-making tin:

... exactly the right size for taking my hexagon production line with me anywhere- scissors, cotton, fabric, paper templates and tiny eggcup pincushion...

and pleasingly, exactly the right size to fit a finished hexie flower:

.. so a big thank you to whoever makes tins of 'Delicious Tivoli Cookies'!

Not to mention whoever makes Scottish shortbread in tartan tins:

for the finished individual hexies.

And here are two more extremely lovely things whose contents fit perfectly:

how could anyone resist these two lovely needlework 'housewives'?

The tiny one is only about two inches long! 

Maybe that's enough about my obsessions, but then there's the one about teeny tiny things that are just like big things, but smaller.......
