Hexagons a go-go!
I'm a little addicted to making these hexagons. I have this book on quilting, and inside there's a tutorial on paper piecing, so I thought I would try it.
Now I know what all the hoopla (link) was about. It is a lot of fun, and not so difficult. I am having a great time going through my stash for blue fabrics to make hexagons out of. I'm making a table runner for my table. I have some blue stoneware on it and a painting with lots of blues in it. I thought a quilted table runner will be great!
The only thing is that it will take at least 60 hexagons to make my runner. Thank goodness I like making these little hexagons. If you live around town here in Hamilton, I know that Needlework (link) will have a class on English paper piecing in the near future, so keep a look out on their website.
I should go and make some more hexagons!
