Hexie Heavy {WIP Wednesday}

Keeping it simple today.  

Finish:


Cat in the Hat

I finished the quilt right before the holidays.  


But this the only photo I have edited. 
Stayed tuned for Finish it Friday!


In Progress:

Hex on the Beach

Basted all 1008 hexies.  


They are almost too pretty to stitch.  But I have started the first two rows.

Stars and Stripes

I am absolutely IN love with this quilt.  


I finally finished appliqueing the hexies and piecing the stripes onto the star section.   I still have to cut the border pieces, so it is still not close to being finished. 



New Project:

Argyle Quilt


Since Stars and Stripes is in machine stage and Hex on the Beach is NOT going on our family vacation.  


I need a new EPP project. 



I think it is perfect for our teenage son.  I am really excited to start on it.  I have all the fabrics pulled from my stash.  The only fabric I had to purchase was the gray/black dot for the cross sections and borders.


Am I crazy to take on another long term EPP project from the Hexa-Go-Go book?  Would you think I am REALLY crazy to already be thinking about other quilts in the book?

  10. You are actually tackling that Tula Pink hexy-beast? WOW! You are my hero. My local quilt shop actually brought that kit in after seeing a table topper I made from EPP hexes but after almost 450 hexes, I developed an allergy to them. Lol. You are my kind of hard-core, lady. :-)

  12. For your Stars & Stripes quilt, did you have issues with the blue & white portion being too small? I feel like I used the right hexie size, but everything was smaller than it should have been :( Yours is great! Mine is more of a pastel version.
