Hexagons Galore!

It is not with great pride I show these pics - but, how could I resist - click the button on my sidebar to see what the Quiltalong is all about! Up top is my newie, as organized by Robyn of Daisy Quilts!

I did one diamond last night using the American Piecing method - see the lower right-hand corner - I made myself a little window template, drew inside and out, cut around the outside and stitched together on the lines.

I do prefer the neatness of the English Paper Piecing method, but this is so much quicker, so I thought I would give it a try!

Hmm, hmmm - just clearing my throat! Here's one I have partly done - very tiresome, but very beautiful - an 1840 reproduction with 5/8" side hexagons - all the cream joining-hexagons have daunted me - maybe I will finish it when I'm an old lady!

Above is my finished Hexagon Quilt top in the progress of being hand quilted - this has been in existence for way too many years - I have started the hand quilting using the Perle thread and bigger stitches and it looks okay!

This is a little darling of 1/2' hexagons - ancient it is - one of my first quilting projects! I have promised myself I will make it into a medallion for a quilt! All my hexagon projects, except this one have been done in reproduction fabrics and I think this one looks sort of Thirtyish.

Here's a cushion top of larger hexagons - well, sort of a cushion top and I have promised myself that will get done - a good one for One Project a Month, see the button on my sidebar!

My dear little boy, Byron with his new haircut - he popped in to see Nanny yesterday, along with twin sister Heidi!

As I said earlier, this new start will be my 33rd hexagon project, but then I do tend to exaggerate - oh, I would love to finish just one!
