....expialidocous! I think that's how it's spelled!!!!....


You must sit all day and do these....I must have ADD.....I can only do hexies for 1-2 hrs, then I have to get up and do something else!!!!!

Lynne, what kind of thread are you using to sew them together....I have tried almost everything and still get shredding a lot........I think that's why I cannot do for a long stretch...too frustrated worrying about thread shredding.....

Oh Lynnie sooo pretty. Love all the colors.Great job.

It is gorgeous! Sure is a lot of work but worth it

Very very pretty

it is beautiful

So pretty lynnie you and your bleeding fingers are champions.

Love your hexie's so how big is this quilt going to be?

Keep up your good work, the quilt is beautiful.

That is the most vibrant hexie quilt I have seen. NO white, just pure glorious color. Love it. OOps, there are a very few whites there, but very minimal, I refuse to see them.

the quilt is planned to be for a queen. I may stop at the 60x80 and add borders, don't know yet. still have some summer left without the car. My son is getting his CDl, so he's using my car.

I use serger thread or cheap stuff to baste the papers (junkmail, manila folders, and paper plates) to the fabrics.
I sew them with Gutermann thread to hand sew with approx. 20 stitches per side of the hex. About 18=20" of thread, and when I have a problem, I beeswax the thread. it doesn't break b/c it is shorter in length. If you do it, have fun.

PaperPieces.com will send you free sample kits if you're not sure if you want to do this. I'd get about 3-4 kits to attach them together and see how you like them.WARNING: it is addictive. Charisma has my triads, waiting for her to quilt them. will show it when it's done.
