I am very inspired by Leanne Beasley's hexagon quilt, as it is so beautiful and her explanation on how to make it was so easy to follow, that I decided to give it a go!!
I have always wanted to make a hand-pieced hexagon quilt, and with the small floral embroideries on some of the hexagons, it was too lovely not to make!!
I am trying to be very disciplined with the making of the hexagons, making at least one hexagon flower per day!! So far I have made about 30 flowers...how many more to go!! Oh well, it's all in the journey as they say!!
I think the best part of making this quilt is choosing the fabrics, only one hexagon flower per fabric..now that's a challenge in itself...just means I have to buy more fabric!!
Hope you are all enjoying this as much as me...

Your hexies are very pretty, I like how you have fussy cut some of the petals and the Colours are very rich looking.
ReplyDeleteBrilliant hexies Sharni. Love the little bird one! Tracee xx
ReplyDeleteSuch beautiful fabrics!
ReplyDeleteLove your hexies :) I am afraid I am not restricting myself to one hexie flower per fabric...I have too many scraps to use up :) Your quilt will look lovely :)

ReplyDeleteSharni,
ReplyDeleteI have been considering doing a hexagon quilt, and joining a quilt-along. Now, after seeing yours, I think I just might do it. I love it!!! Do you have any more pictures, I want to see all of it!!! Love it!! Maybe I'll post about it on my new blog as I make it!
