~I have been slowly piecing my hexagon quilt together hexagon by hexagon. I am loving this process. It is slow and there is no way to rush through the process. This is a good lesson for me.. I am very guilty of rushing through a project to get to the end result. I always want to get to the end and fast!
Summer is in full effect here, it is so so hot and dry. There is nothing to do except stay cool. I have found myself working on more and more projects that I can just sit quietly and work. There is a little bit of zen to be found in sitting and focusing on one task.
~ I am not certain of my exact plan for layout of this quilt and I am not certain how I will quilt it..
thoughts?
This quilt is for baby Caroline so it will be crib sized. I can’t decide if I want to border it or not.. I am also not sure how I want to quilt it. One thing is for sure there is enough time to decide since there is so much work left to do.
It is looking beautiful. I think it is good to take your time as well. I am finding it the same way with a crochet blanket i am working on. It gets bigger every night, but I am still a long way off finishing it.
The baby will treasure such a blanket
Jenn this is absolutely beautiful! I could never do one of these by hand but I just finished a hexagon top that I pieced by machine. I’m totally hooked and wanting to put flowers on everything!
Beautiful work Jenn. I admire your patience on piecing this quilt together. What a family heirloom it will be! I have never made a quilt before and your posts make me want to try.
How’s it coming along Jenn? I am hooked on this EPP myself and keep looking for new ideas. It’s amazing how fast it grows just doing a little every day.
