Thread: Crazy for hexes: dog bone pattern

I think you should do it. I can see why the hexie craze is zooming in popularity. It is so interesting to me to the heights to which the simple hexie has soared. I like them but don't plan to join-I have too many things going on.

Your hexies, your project, your quilt and you're good at it. Of course and why not?

I agree go for it!!!

You'll never know if you don't try. Many great ideas are lost in thought and never put to practice. You are definitely accomplished at making hexies, so why not branch out and discover new patterns. Be sure and post your progress.

There are a few YouTube tutes to show you how....also Pinterest has oodles of hexie designs. Also check out Mickey Dupree -- she does interesting things with 2" hexies.....

I think it is a fun idea! I think it would be cute, especially with a doggie appliqued somewhere on it.

Can't wait to see! I have a container of different size hexies and need ideas and motivation, they intimidate me
