Finished size 57" x 60" (including the big crease down the centre!!) |
And while I've made some adjustments to subsequent half hexie quilts (yet to finish), I really love how this one has turned out.
I've backed this one with red fleece, to make it super snuggly! Our evenings can still be chilly here, so hopefully my friend will still get to use it straight away!
I quilted in the ditches of the hexies, as well as a diamond/zigzag pattern through the centres.
The handover is this Friday night, at the 70's themed party! I'm supposed to dress up, but I'm chickening out!
Happy sewing!

ReplyDeleteThe binding is just perfect! And i love your quilting, it given so much structure, cool!
ReplyDeletevery nice this, lovely fabric and quilting, maybe I need the template too Wondering if I can just cut full hexies then cut in half or maybe there will be problems with a seam allowance.
