Yes, Sue is definitely why I tried hexies....love the glue pen! But I like the acrylic templates from paperpieces.com better, the seam allowance of 3/8".... Wouldn't think that would make a difference, but it does..to me anyway..either glueing or basting is much easier with that extra bit of fabric...love her knicker Knots!
wonder if MSCQ will be a dealer for her patterns, notions? |
Thanks for the link. That is one thing I will do in 2017. I've got the little paper pieces all set - have the fabric squares - just need to jump in. This tutorial will definitely help!
What is everyone planning to do? Mine are 1" hexies......still not sure what I'm making? But, need a "traveling" project to do in the car while traveling. What are your various project ideas for hexies? |
Been working on Grandmother's flower garden with 1930's reproduction fabrics since 2009 - can you believe it? It's my therapy I'm hand piecing with quiltpatis - plastic templates.

Beachbaby12 my first GFG took we 10 years from start to finish and those were 2in. hexies. I didn't paper piece it I just cut the hexies out and sewed them using a 1/4 inch ruler (it is a ruler that is 6 inches long and a 1/4 inch squared). My quilt was suppose to be for a Queen bed, but it is big enough for a King. I am now working on a 1 in. hexies using the EPP method. I have no idea what I am really going to do with all of the flowers yet. Right now I am just making them. I have made a bunch with batik fabric and a bunch with regular quilt fabric that I have - not sure if I like them mixed together. (Still have a a bunch of flowers from my first quilt I didn't need and there is enough for a throw. And I can't decide on a background fabric.) Every so often I think about getting rid of them, but just can't quite let them go, even though it has been 17 years since I finished the first quilt. They are so nice because you can take them anywhere.
