Some News ...

Hi,
just wanted to share a few pictures.
It is progressing well - this project. It is beginning to look like a nice quilt! :-D
3 row finished - and put together ...
"flowers" for the next row are almost ready....
and some of the stitcheries are already done!
I am really loving this ... can't decide if it should turn out like a nice bed-spread, or a nice "comforter" on the sofa ... Guess it is going to be on the sofa ... i don't want to "hide" it in the bedroom! ;-)
Last week I received Issue 4 of the Vignette Magazine ... I am definitely going to try out Leanne's suggestion for quilting ... when I reach that point! :-D
Happy Hexing !

Hi - my very first entry!

Well, I am a blog-newbie (never wrote anything before) ... but I have been following this blog for the past months. It is great to see how many different possibilities this hexagon quilt has.
So, I thought that I would try it out, and also enter some pictures.
I am working on the scrappy look - OK, I admit not all the fabrics come from my stash - but it is allowed to purchase scraps too - right !? ;-)
I only got 250 paper templates to work with - so I have to continously sew blocks together to "liberate" templates - so 2 rows done, the 3rd is on its way!
So, looking forward to continue following this blog - and sometimes add some news of my own!
Have a great day!

Addicted to hexagons and late starting blogger!

Have been viewing for a few months now the great work, so just had to get myself organised and join in the fun of making hexagons and blogging . . . so here goes.  My fabric is from Jelly Roll Curio. I found it quite easy to cut from the jelly roll.
