hexagon quilting
It has been a long time sense I have been able to even think about my hexagon quilts and yesterday I finally had time to get some basted it was great. So far I have 40 basted of the 143 I have cut out and in all I need 428 full hexagons and 21 half hexagons the quilt size will be 103.92" X 100.5". I am still working on my own hexagon quilt as well but it is on hold till I get my own paper peices. I will be taking pictures of what I have when I find my other fabrics. So far my daughter loves what is started and it matches the pillow I made for her last Christmas.

I may take time to progress but as long as we "progress and don't regress". Have fun! Pictures please upon completion or maybe a photo of the pillow already made so we have an idea of what you're working on?

Last hex GFG I made I machine basted my hexies.....basting stitch all round , kept threads attached until I had the whole flower basted together then cut thread for Next flower or background or Whatever.....way faster than hand basting...cute little hexie bundles to work with.....hmmmm, might try doing another......

How big are your hexies? I've been making up a bunch of 1 inch and will eventually make a quilt with them. Good portable project. Keep us posted!

My hexs are 5 inches for her quilt and 3 inches for my other quilt.

I made a traditional Grandmother’s Garden quilt top and it took me over two years to complete it.
