thought I would show you what I have been working on for what seems like forever. It is all hand sewn and I will hand quilt it. Hope it is done in my lifetime. Have made a lot of progress on it the last few weeks. This is what I plan to use on our bed if ever it is finished.

you can see it is almost down the side

That is stunning, well done!

Not far to go now.

I'm doing one the same, only in bright rainbow colours. It's going to take something like 1,400 hexagons, and so far I've done about 200. It's going to take a while! lol

well you have a few hexies to go. :D My husband asked me how many in mine but never counted, will do that when it is done. But it is nice way to use up small pieces of material. So there are quilts out there that can be made even with the high cost of material. I work on this one when my back is bothering me from setting at the sewing machine too long or when my machine is down for repairs (like it is now)
