    Your quilt is simply gorgeous. I like it the best of any hexie quilt I've ever seen.

Is there a good tutorial on how to do something like this? You have an impressive collection of fabrics there. Are those regular cottons or batiks? I've made a few rainbow quilts (one batik and one regular cotton with lots of fabric left over still) and it requires buying a lot of fabric to get the various colors and enough variety. Unfortunately, I purchased a lot of prints that had too much other color and I realized after the fact that it is better to get mostly tone on tone types. Great job.
    Hexies are easy and a great project for sitting in front of the TV with the hubby. I use my Accuquilt die to cut both the fabric and the foundation paper, then carry them in a small plastic box in my purse to work on while waiting for something else.

    WOW, that is awesome. What a great way to use up the scraps. Good Luck in getting it quilted. My GFG is still waiting to be quilted.
