I decided that I wanted to do a traditional quilt, and hand piece and hand quilt the whole thing. I actually had a dream about hexagons, and have been seeing them everywhere, so a Grandmother's Flower Garden it is. I found a great tutorial at Bee in my Bonnet. Of course, I have to figure out how in the heck to put the link on here.
Fact #1 about me:
I am technologically challenged, and have no idea how to do a blog. We'll see how this goes.
Hexie Paper Piecing Tutorial
Ha! I did it!
So here's my progress so far:
 |
| Little hexies all in a row. |

| I am using these, instead of cutting my own. |
 | ||
| The beginnings of flowers for the garden. |
Warning: Be careful if you decide to start these little guys. They are indeed addictive!!!!
I am also working on this puppy:
 |
| A finished quilt top. The line is from Michael Miller. Whimsy, I think? BUT.... |
 |
| Currently my progress looks like this... |
 | |||||||||||||||||||||||
| Because my sewing machine is doing this. Not pretty. Very frustrating. She is at All Brands, hopefully getting all fixed up. |
This is so cool! I love seeing the parts of many quilts and seeing what goes into them! I'm bookmarking you so you have to keep blogging! Maybe yih can post a video of the boys rocking out to Lady Gaga! Jen
