Wow! What a busy few weeks! We were on vacation last week and had an absolute ball! The kids did great on the plane and had so much fun in California! While we were out there, I knew we’d have a little time where I could go shopping, so I stopped in at The Quilt Loft which is exactly 4 minutes from my father-in-laws. Oh man did I spend a lot of money! That’s ok though, some of what I got is for a few gifts, some is for prizes for the guild challenge and the rest is just for me! 🙂 I also picked up fabric for a Christmas table runner – it’s a challenge during our July meeting day. I thought the computer fabric on the right would be so cute as hexies, I think 1″ fussy cut hexies would be really nice – don’t know when I’ll make it but that’s what stash is for right?
So I was looking at Instagram right before we left on vacation and saw a really cute fabric that someone had made into hexies. Oh I loved it! I found out that there were fat quarter bundles on etsy and it was the last one and I bought it. 22 beautiful fabrics and I can’t wait to make this into hexies!!
So for my June monthly goal I want to finish this hexie diamond quilt. I need to quilt all the diamonds and get binding on. I want this on my bed this month. I think I have the design decided on, I just need to decide on the thread color – black or gray?
Linking up to Elm Street Quilts – OMG.
Hexies are a good project. Thanks for linking up with Elm Street Quilts One Monthly Goal and good luck with your project.
Wishing you much success in completing your “hexie” project for June’s OMG challenge! I just scrolled through your Quilts and Knitting in progress and Quilts Needed Quilted lists. I don’t know if it helps you to have them listed, or if it can be overwhelming to see so many projects listed in one place. I admire your use of graphs showing percentage complete – slow and steady.
