    Default Playing with Hexagons

    This is what I have hand-sewed so far. It's fun except when I get sleepy and try to sew and then it doesn't look so good. LOL

    When I put the fabric down and walk away to do something else, I come back and my dog (in the avatar) is laying on top of the fabric.

    Looks like your on a good start. Will be beautiful when you get it finished. Your dog must be asking you if it will be for him?

    Very pretty. Keep going now. I bought some templates for this block but have not tried it yet. Are they hard to do?

    Good job! Of course your furbaby is lying on the blocks. After all, you were paying attention to THEM!

    If you want to make a quick GFG, you might consider using the oversized half hexagon method from F&P. I used it to make this quick lap quilt, which I will be demo-ing at my guild's retreat next month.

    You are doing a wonderful job on it. I think your dog lays on it to make sure it doesn't go anywhere while you are gone.
