Perfect for hexes right! Well, I thought they would work...so off to my stash to gather shades of blue fabric.
These are the little 5/8" hex pieces just laid on a foam board. The finished quilt measures 11.5" x 16". Great TV work sewing the hexes and I already have 8 1/2 individual rows sewn and I think I have about 4 or 5 more to go. I also have something else (surprise!) that I am either stitching or painting on top of the hex quilt. Yep, one of those idea's in my head that I may or may not be able to put to fabric! HA
Beth is working on a HUGE hex quilt! Check out one of her posts with a picture of this fabulous quilt here! Then go back to just look at some of her older posts! She's quite talented and writes interesting posts!
Too much work for me
ReplyDeleteI love making hexies. I have a ton, but no clew what I will do with them. Just good scrap work. I have a feeling you are making something really AWESOME with these. Thanks for the link, too.

That's a great selection of blues! Good luck with the project.
ReplyDeleteWho knows... the hexies may make a wonderful new contribution to science!! I love the colors and contrast you are using. Great idea.
ReplyDeleteOoooo, I love your new hexie project and can't wait to see your painting/stitching on them. Thanks for referring your readers to my site. I hope my tips help someone else. It took me a good while to figure out what worked best for me with those LITTLE hexies.
ReplyDeleteI am grabbed and mesmerized by this DNA in gorgeous blues. Your hexes will be wonderful. They are so tiny. I shall check out your link.
