Want to see some hexagons?
I've been trying to clean out my sewing space. It isn't going very well. A giant bonfire would make short work of it, but that isn't happening. I came across my hexagons for a Grandmother's Flower Garden Quilt. They are filed in those boxes that people use for embroidery floss or whatever. Yep, that is one heap of hexes. They are all stamped, cut out and filed in the amounts needed for one complete unit or flower. I like to sew the border and the first row together as I go along. (The brown flower is one row down - just threw that one in, I guess.) Have you ever seen those stacks of flowers in antique malls that never got sewn together? Well, that is what I am trying to avoid. Of course if I don't ever work on this project, it will remain just boxes of hexes. My all time favorite design is simply the hexagon. A person could quilt the rest of their life and never make anything other than hexagon quilts. The variations are endless. Wish me luck on the cleaning out project.
Until next time......
