I've been wondering how your quilt turned out, since I first saw your fabric on here. I really like it and I'm sure your Dad will too. Be proud!
Why aren't you thrilled?

I agree your quilt is awesome :!: :thumbup: :shock: Looks like dad's cabin in the woods. Your dada will really enjoy it. Mine is still on the wall. Wasn't sewing the rows together difficult? Any tips to share. I love OBW's and I just struggle like crazy with mine. arg.

Salmonsweet and Bkinco, Your quilts are very beautiful.Everyone's quilts are so beautiful and so different. Some many different colors. It is amazing what one can do with one farbic .

I found it more difficult to sew the half hexs together to form the rows. I really had to concentrate to take the right piece off my design wall ( a piece of flannel hung from a board over the closet). I caught myself several times taking the wrong piece. I must have been tired or something. But if you just make sure to take the right piece and pin each one to the next one, before taking another. I then would chain sew them together. Then go back and pin it back up on the flannel. Sewing the rows together, was just a lot of pinning and matching those triangles that stick out. I also put a safety pin on the top hex on each strip to make sure I didn't flip them around when sewing the strips together.

I agree with fireworkslover....getting those rows together was more difficult than anything else. I personally really struggled with getting the triangles to line up so that my row was straight...I never did figure out the secret to that, which I was hoping would dawn on me before I finished :)

I stick pin through each point then put a pin at right angles either side of the seam allowance and remove the stick pin. Then I'm very naughty and sew carefully over the pins! :mrgreen:

I hate pinning and do it as little as possible, but here I can't find another way to line those points up. If there's a secret, I'd like to know it too! :-D

I thought of doing this but one of my points was missing, the way I cut my fabric one tip of one point was gone :( Lining those dang triangles up was the most frustrating!

If you do this in the future...use a Super 60 Triangle ruler...be sure not to cut off any of those rabbit ears and when you go to line the hexagons up, you can line up the ears for a perfect fit.

I'm going to try lining up the little ears...then I"m going to try the trick I've learned with my Jane blocks.....GLUE PEN!!!!

wow, beautiful end to so many of these quilts - this sure was a fun experience Cutie!!
