I finally finished this tonight...I started it two weeks ago...have worked on it a bit off and on..wanted to get it done so I could work on different things tomorrow...mindless sewing projects! LOL
This is for my BFF ( she bought the fabric but refused to try to do all the Y-seams) I struggled a bit with them but muscled my way through and I can't say they are perfect..but I can say they are done. :-)
This is her collection of fabric called "love" and her free pattern on her website.

Wow! Looks great, wonderful intersections, great balance and placement of colors... :thumbup: :D

I'd say you are quite the friend to do all those Y-seams for someone! It's a great quilt.

Verryy pretty! love all the colors

That is amazing! You are so talented! I just cannot figure out how you get so much done with such a large wonderful family! You are such an inspiration!

It's so pretty! I love that fabric collection but I'm afraid to cut into it!

Wow this looks like a lot of work ! the fabric is so pretty !

Very pretty Charismah - way to go on the y-seams, as they say, practice makes perfect - do you think you'd take 'em on again? I was going to make a small attic window doll quilt, and I realized it was y's and ran screaming...I'm having to do so many with my DJ quilt, so I'm really limiting my exposure. Probably be smart to do more on bigger projects, huh.

Yours is fantastic!!

Wow, you did a wonderful job on that. Love the fabric. Great quilt.

That fabric line is one of my favorites. Brave girl taking on those seams. I'm doing a clam shell quilt with a million curves. I won't be doing another!

this is so amazing. I love amy butler fabric and this turned out just wonderful!

What is there to say about a "sexy hexy love quilt" Is that the name of the fabric line or the pattern name? Lots of really neat fabrics and looks like you did a good job putting it together. Please show us the quilt after it is quilted..... :thumbup: :thumbup:

Ditter

I actually want to make one of these quilts again.....so YES I will be taking it on again..but not for awhile..I want to do some other things first. I would keep doing them...practice does make perfect.

WOW!!

HI Ditter,
The name of the line of fabric is called "LOVE" ..the name of teh pattern is called "SEXY HEXY"
Funny huh?

I love this collection as well...I love all of Amy's stuff anyhow.....BUt I was going to tell you there is a fabulous book out there called "Material Obsession" by Kathy Doughty and Sarah Fielke and it uses alot of Amy's fabrics ( not this collection) and they have some patterns in the book that would make it easier to cut into your Amy fabric....I may try one myself.

I love your quilt---you can't go wrong with Amy Butler fabrics!

Love it!

Great job chrisma!

Charisma, your quilt is fabulous. I have a Jelly Roll of the Love fabric that I've sewn into strips...may make a French braid, or a strippy quilt. I hope I don't have to take it all apart. I will buy a couple more JRs soon so I can work on it. I just adore the colors & designs. Her Southwestern fabs are great too.

Love the fabric,You did a great job,LOVE IT!!!

Good Job!!! Your BFF is going to love it :D:D:D

fabulous job.....now that I have the mitered corners down, I am going to have to take on Y seams! Tell me is it like being intimidated with mitres? Their bark is worse than their bite?

Great job Mom!

Actually I think Mitered corners are a bit easier..but that may be just because I have more experience with them...LOL. I have no idea. You will definatly have to try the Y-seams. It made a FABULOUS quilt!

i LIKE ALL THE COLORS IN THIS, VERY NICE. COMGS.

Beautiful and you sure did a great job !!!

FOR THOSE INTERESTED, I WAS WATCHING YOU TUBE, MISSOURI QUILTING FORUM, AND SHE HAS THE NEATEST WAY TO BIND A QUILT, SHOWS YOU IN DETAIL. THAT IS THE ONE THING THAT I HATE TO DO. YA ALL HAVE A GREAT DAY.

Great color arrangements - beautiful quilt. Did you get the message from your BFF that it's OK with her if you sent it along to me? I think it's some type of outreach project she's working on...quilts for those whose friends don't quilt.

The quilt really looks fantastic, and you have every right to be proud. What a great gift to your friend -- I'm sure she'll treasure it (even if she did buy the fabric). And thanks for taking the fear out of Y seams -- I feel a lot more confident about tackling them now.

I love this quilt!! I am making my own version but not the same way she does it. I am building log cabins around my huge hexagons. And I am not using Amy's fabrics, but I do love them. I think this is the first one I have seen made other than the one on her website. You did a wonderful job on it!

Wow, that is the biggest hex I have ever seen!

I have a pattern for a 1/2" or so and compatred to yours, mine will take forever to make! Think I'll enlarege mine :}

Looks great!

beautiful

Gah! I'm soooooo trying to talk myself out of this pattern.....trying, and failing. You did a great job. :D

I love this quilt too....and I have quilte the stash of Amy's LOve collection as well..I am going to make a different quilt with mine only because I already made this oen for BFF....and now my other BFF wants one.....and I am not sure I want to make it three times.....so I found a different pattern for myself.....anyway....I don't think you will regret it. It is a beautiful collection.

The quilt looks fabulous!
And the y-seams look great, too!!

Great job!

Good afternoon,
I am ready to start the Love quilt, yours turned out beautifully. I am only slightly experienced in quilting.
Do you have any advice, how difficult was the project?
Thank you
Trudie~

Beautiful
