    I have really gotten into the half hexi either as hexagons or the friendship braid. I got the 5 inch and 10 inch from Missouri Star Quilt company and then had one custom made for 8 inch which is my favorite size. I did the 5 inch in flannel for a little boy and it is just so adorable.

    I made a purple Diamond Patch. You can buy the pattern here http://www.pleasantvalleycreations.com but I did it without buying it. I just used 5" and 2.5" squares and Quiltville.com chart for the corner and setting triangles. http://quiltville.com/onpointmath.shtml I added an extra column of blocks as I like my little ones quilts to have room to grow with them.

    I have done several Sunbonnet Sue quits for family members, from previously worn clothes. However, I don't see why one done is one color scheme wouldn't work just as well. And, she may think they are her "dollys"

    I like Dina's purple trip around the world. Depending on your skill level, you could do a purple bargello.
