hexagon quilting
It has been a long time sense I have been able to even think about my hexagon quilts and yesterday I finally had time to get some basted it was great. So far I have 40 basted of the 143 I have cut out and in all I need 428 full hexagons and 21 half hexagons the quilt size will be 103.92" X 100.5". I am still working on my own hexagon quilt as well but it is on hold till I get my own paper peices. I will be taking pictures of what I have when I find my other fabrics. So far my daughter loves what is started and it matches the pillow I made for her last Christmas.

I may take time to progress but as long as we "progress and don't regress". Have fun! Pictures please upon completion or maybe a photo of the pillow already made so we have an idea of what you're working on?
