the hexes are 3/4". I bought the punch at Micheals on a 50% coupon.
It cost me about $7. I use old manilla folders for my paper pieces. I'm looking for other recyclables so i'll start using those annoying papers in the magazines that everyone hates. Im using 2" x 6" scraps or 5" sqs. I'm trying to keep it a charm type of quilt, no duplicates except one. I'm using all types of 100% cottons, except flannel. I've been working on it for about a month now. I'm figuring i'll need about 1,000 more hrs. to finish it to be a queen. |
What a fun design! So glad your friend shared the pic, lynnie!
|
You are HAND sewing that? Holy wow, that's discipline! It's crazy pretty lynnie!
|
LOVE your hexis, Lynnie! Such a fun variation of EPP and great scraps. Just so cheerful!
|
Wow!
Very awesome! I love the varriety and workmanship. I know I would never get more tan 9 r 10 of those sewn and I would be crying uncle. Great job Lynnie now I understand wht your doing. |
Each hex is basted with paper. then sewn to the next one with at least 18 stitches per 3/4" side.
alot of thread! |
Wow, that's a lot of hexies.
|
My! That is wonderful! Good job, Lynnie.
|
Very pretty and sooo much work! Very impressive!

Oh I just love this! I started working on one for my daughter. We are using scraps from her grandmother's fabric stash. We have large enough pieces to get four hexis per print. My daughter wanted it totally random, so that's what she's getting. Very difficult for me, I hoped she'd let me put them together like you've done lol. I'm showing her yours and I know she'll love it but I have nearly 1/4 of them sewn so it's to late for her to tell me she wants a pattern lol.
