Half Hexi Quilt + A GIVEAWAY!

Pin It



I am so excited to FINALLY share this quilt with you all!  

I made it back in June, but haven't time to finish it until now, silly moving! 

I made it specifically for my master bedroom and I knew that the Paloma Collection was the perfect choice!



I think my favorite part is the binding!
(THIS print)


And the backing is so cute too! It's from the Comma Collection. 


My extremely talented friend Rhonda did the quilting again.  Just simple, but so fantastic!
(Never mind all the wrinkles, I'm sure my iron will get unpacked eventually!)

This quilt was SUPER EASY!  

I folded a 10" square in half, and then used my Hex N More Ruler to cut out two half hexies at once! 

Then I just laid my half hexies out in the pattern I wanted,

And sewed them together one row at a time. All straight lines, and no corners! 
SEW EASY!

 WOULD YOU LIKE TO WIN A HEX N MORE RULER OF YOUR VERY OWN?



The possibilities with this Ruler are ENDLESS!

    Hey there! How big are your hexagons on this quilt? I love the colors and want to try my hand at making one of my own. Also, have you ever seen a hexagon quilt with less repeating patterns? I ask because I'd like to make one using clothes that my 5 month old has out grown. I like her in certain colors so there would be some symmetry in that, but you can't get many hexis out of a newborn onsie! Thanks for your help!

    Genuinely, this article is extremely one of the absolute best ever. I am an antique 'Article' gatherer and I once in a while read some new articles in the event that I discover them fascinating.
