After having a mad making month for the travelling craft box I decided to spend a little time not stitching as I wanted to be refreshed for when I do my summer birthday/exchange/anniversary stitching in June and July. I decided that my quilt had been rather neglected and I've been sent some lovely fabric recently by Steph and Laura so time to add it in.
So I had a sort out of all the fabric that needed to go in, there was around 60 different fabrics there and then I found a pile of hexagon shaped pieces I'd already cut in the box...
Made a few heaxagons (100 to be exact) I did have 98 by the time I'd done all I wanted but decided that was a weird number and needed to be rounded off!
and set out add a few more rows. Here's the last picture I blogged.
And here it is today. The last 4 on the bottom row need sewing in, but they are the ones I want to put in.
I'll be finishing off the pile of hex's I have left later as one more row should see it squared off. Then it'll be time for a huge hex making session again, or rather the start of the summer stitching. I'm really pleased with how much I've done, It's almost doubled in length in a week!
Tomorrow I launch my giveaway to win a kit to start your own hexagon quilt!
Wow your quilt is going to be so lovely ..
