Hexagon Crazy?

I may have gone hexagon crazy!  Or maybe I have just become a Hexagonocologist!  Is that a word? 

I have finished another hexie diamond.

 We have precut packages of moda hexagons at the store that I work at. They are forty to a pack. I took some home to see what I could do with  them , besides just making hexies with cardboard templates. Mine were of thirties design.  

Then I decided to add a wool applique to it.  The colors popped so springy and lighthearted that it needed something springy to compliment it.

I am by no means an artist so this is my best attempt at a bunny.I just have to do the stitching on it before Prairie Women's club. After all the snow we have been having I need something bright and cheery!

Our Quilting Guild is sewing a quilt for a raffle for next year.I volunteered to do a block and have finished it.


It will be a house quilt and will also have some applique on borders when finished. Chit chat with you all later, Martha.

  I have been doing some more sewing of flying geese, the past couple of days.  I have made some progress as I have about twenty sashings total sewn now.  Here are pics of what I have finished so far. I also got back another lap quilt from the quilter and I have sewn down the binding on the front side. In the evenings I am enjoying hand sewing the back side.   I also purchased some Applipops  , which were a bit on the expensive side($35) and decided to try them for all the circles in this quilt. They are not worth the price in my opinion.  To each his own. I prefer my mylar circle washers, There are many more sizes and easier to use.
