Indigo Hexies




I have totally lost count of the hexies, but am counting the strips now instead.  Eleven done ...






...and number twelve begun!

  1. how big are you making this? will it be the main body of the quilt, or borders?

    1. I want it big enough for a nap quilt, so I will just keep making strips until it covers me. I am thinking of adding a thin blue border and another wider white border. Will see when I get that far. I would love some suggestions tho!

  2. Wow! The more the better. Your setting makes me want to linger and examine every one.

  3. This is so beautiful! The dark blues pop out with the light background.

  4. Wow the spacing looks perfect did you measure the placement for each one?
    What a lovely quilt this will be.....have you thought about the hand quilting you will do?

    Happy Sewing

  7. i love how this looks --so so pretty. i have a question are you eye-balling the distance between the hexies or measuring??
    your slow stitch progress is very apparent...so worth the time you are spending.

    1. I calculated the distance between the hexies somehow...not a math genius here...but I wanted them to be equidistant...is that a word?
