I love your hexies grouped in threes. You have a lot of patience.
|
Kudos to her
|
Beautiful job and gorgeous colors! I am enjoying making a grandmother's flower garden quilt with hexagons using 1930's reproduction fabric - it sure give you a sense of satisfaction and is great therapy!
|
It takes a lot of patience to sew all those hexies together. She's doing a great job, nice bright quilt.
|
therapy for me, no. I need a massage every night after doing this. I love the satisfaction of seeing it grow, little by little. A great sense of accomplishment. It will take about a year to complete. but i'll be 56 next year anyway, i can be 56 with or without the hex quilt. i choose to have the hex quilt!!!
Thank you all for your kind words. |
Amazing!!! I admire your work on such tiny pieces....quite admirable.....keep us posted:)
|
Beautiful colors. You have much more patience and talent than I have.
|
What a neat idea for grouping the hexies in threes. Very unusual so your quilt will be very special!
|
thanks for saying i'm talented, but it's just hexies. All of you here are so talented and imaginative. I come here few times a day to visit the different rooms to see what's new, and i'm always amazed at everyone's talent. Such beautiful quilts, and quilted items and gifts and totes . Color expolsions on every page, and always a new technique or a twist on an older one. A quick way of doing things, or an new easier way. Tuts on new fangled rulers, or old tried and true techniques. everyone here adds their special talent to this board, and i'm so glad we're all here to share.

Like the three group hexi's. Nice pattern.
|
That's beautiful...I love how the pattern pulls everything together despite the scrappiness. It's wonderful
|
it's going to get alot more scrappier as this goes on. I have some fellow QB friends sending me some scraps. I can't wait, different fabs from all over. this is going to be an awesome scrappie quilt
|
Wow! Your hexie quilt is fantastic- so colorful!
|
I like your triads!
|
Kimberly, thnks for the scraps, so bright and colorful it will add to my quilt.
tried to give you a positive rating, but don't know how. thank you again. |
Thanks to all who offered scraps. I'll be at Jeanne's house in 2 weeks and will have her put up a photo with my progress. then you can play I SPY to find your fabrics.
|
just added 2 more rows, will show a pic next tuesday for all who sent me fabs.
a big thank you. |
I love all the colors...Great job..
|
Soooo many hexies! It looks awesome!
|
Wow, thats going to be gorgeous
|
I love your scrappy setting. Great job and you are getting it done so quickly.
When I work on my hexie quilts I like to get some hexies basted to papers and then sew the units together. I wouldn't be able to just do the basting and not see what kind of design progress was being made. --I scratch my head in wonder at the people who have loads of basted hexies but no design completed--that would get too boring. |
Amazing.....truly!!!! Wow!!
|
I would like to do something like that, but don't think I would have the patience.
|
for those who think they don't have the patience. do a one inch to start and make a pot holder. you'll feel great you made something and have something to show others. no one said you had to make quilt. do something small. my first one was a 3/4" gfg that my cat has. she looked good on it and asked for it and now she has it.
when I finish this one, I may do a 1", and use the fiskers punch again. thank you all for the kind words of encouragement. thank you all who contributed to it also. My friend will post pics for me on Tuesday. |
I am very tempted to do this pattern oversized with half hexies. I love it.
|
thanks for the tip lynnie I love hexies but always put off the challenge pot holders a good idea DUH! why didn't I think of that I guess because I look at all the beautiful bed size hexie quilts and get intimated with all those y seams you just encourage me to at least try a pot holder
