Hundred hexies

The attraction of hexies is starting to really appeal to me.  I made 100+ of these in the fall - all solids - and I'm having a great time sewing them together.


I'm going around in a circle - the center is that dark green wrinkly one in the 3rd row.  Each time I add a hexie, I am blindly pulling it from my bag.

I'm not stressing which color ends up next to the other - at least not so far!

It is just wonderful to have a ready to go hand sewing project waiting for me.  I'll keep where I'm headed with this project a secret for now - at least until I get them all sewn together and then I'll share more.



Have a wonderful day! Patty

  3. Hexies are my favorite take along project. You are doing a great job of stitching them together. My stitches always show no matter how I do them. I'm curious to see your final quilt too, it looks interesting.

  4. That is a neat idea-using just solids--and it is looking really good -- we just don't do enough with solid colors--do we??

  7. I love playing with hexies. I'm always surprised how many I can get joined in just a few minutes. Your solids would make a fun pillow cover.

  8. I love that you are adding each hexie randomly! The solids give it a nice look.
