    Wonderful hexagon quilt. How long did it take you to do?

    Great job. I had my shoulders done 7 weeks apart with four screws in each one. I can certainly relate to your pain.

    Wow! Amazing! I don't think I would have the patience for hexies but I love the quilts everyone makes from them. Maybe someday. It would help put a dent in my scraps maybe! Your avatar is so adorable

    When life hands you lemons..............make lemonade. Great use of your "down time" and a gorgeous quilt to boot.

    Beaglegirl, I can't really say how much time I spent on this. I got the fabric cut into 2.5" strips then 2.5" squares. then made about 100 hexies at a time; pressed them and stored them in a box. We've had tri-colored beagles for the past 20 years, but our newest one is a bagel -- beagle/basset.

    Wow! You have certainly used your "down time" wisely. That is really pretty.
