    I designed this quilt using an acrylic triangle template to piece the hexagons together in strips rather than the typical hand stitched method to join them together. It is the same method as my "Pot of Jewels quilt that I posted a couple of days ago but a completely different looking quilt.
    I hand stitched the small hexagons using no-melt template plastic and then appliqued them to the quilt. Peggy

    I love it. BUT, my favorite is your jewel tone because of the colors. You do good work.
