Because this is a memory quilt, consider adding some dates or years. You could embroider your son's bday on one. This year on the lilly of the valley block. The year you purchase your home on the house block. Etc. 💖🌞🌵😷
I love that this is such a quiet, slow and relaxing project with no deadline. I haven't started mine yet, and I will, but I enjoy your return to your project. This is really about the journey, not the destination.
absolutely, I couldn't agree more. Thank you for watching
I LOVE this quilt so much. I recently discovered your channel and I love your style and your approach to slow stitching. I was always the one who said “I will NEVER hand quilt a quilt”, but after discovering your channel and starting to EPP (because of your channel) and now seeing this video, I want to start a quilt like this. Thank you for sharing your life and your approach to slow stitching. You have caused me to reevaluate how I approach my stitching (both hand and machine). To slow down and not be so focused on the end product but to also focus on the journey. Thank you.
Oh thank you for leaving such a lovely comment! It means so much to me and I am so happy to hear how it has positively impacted you. Take care and happy stitching 🧵
My heart soars!
thank you!
I did start mine a couple months ago and I am having so much fun collecting fabrics from friends and family, using fabric scraps I love of my past projects, and trying new techniques on some of my hexagons. Even if I never end up stitching them all together, I’ve had a wonderful time making the individual hexies. I’ve got about 10-15 right now. I’m not sure how I want to arrange them so I haven’t started sewing them together yet. Thank you for the inspiration!
so glad you are enjoying the process too, thank you so much for watching
This was lovely, Emma - so gentle. It's beautiful to see your QAYG quilt slowly evolving. I like that you are content to let it happen gradually. That encourages me to go ahead and make a start on mine even though I have house projects on the go. As you say, it's nice to have something sweet and comforting to pick up once in a while that has no time-pressure on it. I did get the wadding you recommended, and I have some scraps of fabric and some vintage embroideries to use. So I might even make my first hexie tonight 🥰 I appreciated hearing your thought process about the placement of colours, tones and patterns - I'll bear all that in mind moving forward. Thank you, Emma. Take care🌸💞
I hope you do make a start, I am sure you'll love the process too. thank you so much for watching and for your lovely comment x
You totally inspired me to make a quilt like yours and I’m about 25% finished. Although I work on mine regularly I don’t expect to be finished for awhile! I’m really enjoying the hand sewing.
that's lovely that you are working steadily on it and enjoying the process. Thank you for watching
I think I will adopt your phrase, "Comfort Project".
absolutely, we all need one of those don't we. Thank you for watching
Soo Beautifully it is coming around❤ I love the process of hand stitching by itself and how it all builds up!
This quilt is Absolutely Adorable Emma!
Thank you so much!
Always cut away from yourself when using a rotary cutter……love love this beautiful quilt you are making x
thank you! yes I usually do but when there's a camera in the way I sometimes end up doing things in a strange way to avoid knocking it over! will be more careful next time!
Hi Emma. I enjoyed this video so much and I simply have to start on a hexagon quilt. I have never made one before, but after seeing yours, it is next on my list! Your fabrics are beautiful and complement each other so well. Thank you. Pam Miller in USA-Alabama.
Oh you will have a wonderful time making one, thank you so much for watching 🌸
I love your never ending quilt. Thank you for sharing it with us.
Thanks for watching!
Just found your tutorials. I have been sewing all my life and have done most crafts, crochet and now quilting for years, but just wanted to let you know how enjoyable and inspiring your videos are. I’m learning from you too.
Oh that is so lovely, thank you so much 🌸
When I was making my quilt as you go hexagon quilt, I asked a friend with a lazer cutter to make my template. I even did quilt rulers too. I also blanket stitched around my hexagon and then crocheted them together. I love it
Oh that’s great! 😊🌸
I love what you are making and how it is made. I have never made anything this way, but I love the idea and plan on starting one after I watch your tutorial. I love how you have two quilts in one! But more than that, I love how back piece is folded towards the front and folded over to make it’s own binding. I like the concept of working on one piece at a time. It really is a lovely project to take with you. You have picked out beautiful fabrics. Thank you for another wonderful video.❤
im so happy to read this! so glad you want to make one too, it is a great ongoing project. Take care and thank you so much for watching x
I love all your videos about this quilt. I must not start another project until a few more UFOs are done, but it is on my short list of next projects to plan in my head until such time as I can get started.
I enjoy learning from YOU! I have never done this before. Looking forward to trying. Thank you❤
thank you! I am sure you'll love making it
I started making one when you first shared the idea. I have it as a 5 year project. In summers, I will make the hexies, and in winters I will sew them onto the quilt.
I love that idea! makes perfect sense to work in that way. Thank you for watching
The fabrics you choose are absolutely beautiful. I feel inspired to start making something similar. Thanks for sharing your technique and fabric suppliers. Looking forward to seeing your quilt evolve xx
thank you so so much Carolyn
Hello lovely, I'm fairly new to sewing and I came across your video about a month ago. The video with the little cot bed and quilt. I fell in love with it and I'm currently making my first ever quilt for my niece for Christmas and today I found an amazing wooden dolls cot for a £5 in my local charity shop 😊 I can't wait to paint it and finish my quilt for it. Thank you so much ❤❤❤if your on Instagram I'll tag you when it's complete xxx
oh how lovely! yes I would love to see so please tag me, I'm vintage sewing box on there x
I love your choice of different fabrics, and how you embroidered your hexagons..your so clever, your quilt is looking fab ,so inspiring 🧵🪡👍
thank you ever so much!
As someone who just started making their own hexagon quilt, this was such a lovely video!! Mine is a gift for a father in law and it’s been such a fun project to see come together, I LOVE the themes you have in yours it’s so beautiful and vibrant, I hope to see more of it! 💕💕
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed the video. Have fun making the quilt for your father in law 🌸
Lovely video, beautiful work...I've been making these for over 20 years. Currently, I'm working on a scrap quilt...I've just recently started an ig account where I share it in stages.. yes it gets a bit difficult choosing how you want to finish the edges or to leave as is...tfs and may you have many happy slow sticking days .
How lovely that you have been making these too, thank you for watching
Hey Beautiful Emma for sharing your journey with us. You always bring peace and calming to me when you're talking and sewing. I really enjoy learning from you. I hope you have an awesome evening. ❤❤
oh what a lovely comment, thank you! Wishing you a wonderful week Vivian x
I love Elmhirst Fabrics. Such wonderful fabrics and customer service is excellent.
I totally agree!
This is such a beautiful project Emma. Thank you for a wonderful relaxing video at the end of a crazy day❤
Glad you enjoyed it Maureen, hope tomorrow is less crazy for you x
Oh my goodness Emma, thank goodness you popped up in my Instagram. I just love this quilt and now have ambitions to make my own, In the meantime, i will enjoy catching up with all of your videos. Thank you. x
Thank you Denise, that’s so lovely of you, I appreciate you watching and I hope you do make one one day 🌸
Thanks for sharing your progress and how the quilt looks as you connect the hexagons. Your work is feminine and beautiful. My only project is quilt-as-you-go with templates I bought many years ago that’s a two piece XL Hickory Nut template. I’m appliquéing brightly colored geometric patterned hexagon halos (flowers without centers) onto striped background fabric, it’s a Japanese textile look. Like you, no idea when it will be completed, it has become an enjoyable, meditative activity. Your early examples and video reviews sharing the work of other quilters inspired me to try this method and it’s wonderful. ❤
I am so glad you were inspired to give it a go, and what you are making sounds wonderful. Thank you for watching x
Oh, I love your quilt. Mine is so puffy. I’ve tried to make them come out flat and even but it’s not working. I will continue because I really like the idea of making a quilt as I go. Thank you for all of your videos and your helpful tips.
thank you! puffy quilts are lovely and snuggly and I am sure it's lovely x
Oh my that is beautiful!!!
I so appreciate your tutorials/talks. I often will save them up to watch/listen back to back while I’m stitching!!!!
I have made a Christmas tree skirt for my Son and Daughter-in-law. Using The Daisy & Grace template. It was an amazing feeling to have it done all in one step!!!
I fall down Rabbit Holes frequently!!!😂 My newest obsession is a mixture of Kawandi/Kantha/ Sashiko!!!
I’m currently working on Journal covers for Christmas gifts!!
Thank you for sharing your thoughts/journey and being a part of mine.😊
Oh this is such a lovely comment, thank you; it really means so much. 🤗
Hello from Australia Emma. I really enjoyed this video seeing you work on this project. I love making items that are worked on long term...... it extends the joy! ❤
Thanks so much! 😊 you are totally right about extending the joy! Love that phrase, thank you x
I haven’t started my quilt but am in the process of gathering supplies. I love the Liberty and Tilda fabrics. I too think it is a peaceful project to work on,
Gathering supplies is so much fun, enjoy the process and thank you for watching 🌸
❤ I like that very much, it is so relaxing not only to watch you but the “slow stitching”
😊 thank you
I agree the quilt so far is gorgeous I’ve never made half hexagons but am interested. Thank you Emma I love your videos. ❤
Thank you! 😊
I found that the easiest way to decide what can go next to each other when you want it to look a little bit random or whatever is to take a black-and-white photo because that will show you the value without the color
I’ve never worked on a hexagon quilt. But you inspire me!
I hope you give it a go one day, thank you Candace
You are doing a lovely job as always. 😊
Thank you! 😊
I plan to begin one soon 😊
Ive only recently found your channel, I find your vidoes very calming and a joy to watch so I just wanted to say thank you for this. Ive sewn for many years but only recently got into patchwork and I am trying to build up my supplies and fabrics. I have lots of embridered items from my mother who is no longer with us and also one table cloth my father embroidered many many years ago. I have them kept in a bag in a cupboard and have always thought its a shame not to have them out on display. Your hexagons have inspired me to toy with the idea of incorporating them into a similar project, I think they would look lovely with a mixture of liberty prints, not sure if Im brave enough to start cutting them to do this but hopefully I will be! Also , thank you for sharing the links to your fabrics, I love the Acufactum fabrics they are so different and beautiful.
thank you so much for such a lovely message. be brave and cut them, you won't regret it. have fun x
Thank you.
My neighbor loves Hawaiian so she went through my stash and I’m putting together a table runner. Yes enjoying the process.
fantastic, lovely to make something for someone who will appreciate it. Thank you for watching
What a beautiful heirloom for your future grandchildren ❤❤
Thank you 😊
Such a beautiful and soothing voice. Beautiful work.🎉
Thank you so much!
Emma your work is always so beautiful I love how you pick your fabric colors I love the vintage and pastels in flowers thank you so much for sharing
Thank you so much!
I started in July and finished yesterday. 195 full hexis, 18 straight half hexis and 24 pointy half hexis. It's a gift for a friend and I'm excited to be giving it to her tomorrow.
fantastic! what an amazing gift
Emma, the whimsical pattern choices of material, along with your relaxing measures you take on quilting it reminds me of long ago when my grandmother taught me to quilt with her quilting circle. We would sit for hours quilting, hand stitching and sharing stories of past generations quilting. Your doing a beautiful job of keeping the tradition!
Oh what a lovely memory! Sounds like a very special time. Thank you for such kind words, really means a lot to me
Thank you so much! I just received my templates from Daisy & Grace and I'm just now starting mine today.
I made a lap size quilt and finished it a couple months ago. I think I loved the process more than the finished quilt though it is super soft and snuggly.
I am the same, I tend to love the process more than the finished item. Thank you for watching
Thank you for being so inspiring. I have enjoyed a whole day cutting out Liberty fabrics and starting EPP! 😊
Oh how lovely! Thanks for watching
Emma as I always say I so admire all you make, you always find such fantastic fabric. I wonder if you could list a few places for me, I have looked at many different places but never manage to find the type of fabric you find. I wish I could be as clever as you. It’s most definitely something special you have. And gos you design things you make, plus so enjoyable to listen to you talking to us. Thank you.
Thank you Karen. I linked the fabric shops in the description of the video so hopefully that helps 🌸
@@emmajonesvintagesewingbox thank you so much really appreciate that , maybe one step for working towards the lovely things you do and I could only ever dream of doing. Maybe this is the time to start. X
@@emmajonesvintagesewingbox Afternoon Emma I wonder please if you could help me in this one, could you please advise me ion where the best place to buy hexafoam ? Is from please. I know it’s something you use yourself a lot , I guess you dont sell it yourself .
I would be looking at something to cover an area 9ft by 9ft in size.I hope you don’t mind ne asking you. I keep looking at the things you make with it and it seems a better alternative to wadding when I am making the quilt with hexagons
Thank you for any help you could give me in advance . Xx
I've actually been getting my fabric from op shops! I ask the employees which sheets have been on the shelves the longest (those are more likely to get binned!) and buy them. Less stuff goes in the landfill, lots of yardage, and cheap compared to the proper fabric stores. Plus it's been pre-washed already so I don't need to worry about washing my quilt in the washer when it inevitably gets soiled by the dogs 😂
That's a great idea!
Absolutely enthralled with your videos, thank you❤. In my 70's but only started doing EPP. Slowly!! Arthritis doesn't help altho EPP helping me mentally. The serious light you recommend has helped seeing so much better. Thank you.
thank you so much Sally, so glad you like the light, it's wonderful isn't it. take care
I love your blocks , Emma and I’m working on one but no where’s near yours. I love hand stitching but it’s slow going for me ❤
slow going for me too Karen, I am glad you've started one, I hope you love making it. Thank you for watching
You're right it's not big enough for a quilt, but your could use it as a table topper, or add a few hexis and lay it on the foot of your bed, or the back of the sofa, or display on a quilt rack. Now I'm not saying stop working on it. I'm saying display it/use it in between the adding of rows. Right now it could be a table topper or hang on the back of your easy chair, as it gets bigger then move it to your bed or sofa. 💖🌞🌵😷
Thanks so much Suzi, you are right, it would be nice to keep it displayed as I go along, and see it grow! Lovely idea about embroidering dates too. Take care and thanks for watching 😊🌸
@@emmajonesvintagesewingbox , that's the advantage of quilt as you go, put it on your table and no one will know that it's a WIP (work in progress)😏. Sending lots of love 💖 from sunny 🌞 Arizona 🌵. Take care of yourselves 😷.
Great video, thank you x very much love and God Bless from the UK xx
Your fabrics are beautiful. I love all the embroidery and applique that you do. I have made two table toppers for my kitchen table and a rectangular set of hexies for my dressing table and bedside cabinets. I am onto a quilt for my bed, it's in the form of, what's it called..... Grandmothers Garden? A solid white center and floral petals. They are all quilt-as-you-go and the quilt for my bed just might end up being a life time project, haha. I love to watch your videos. Thank you.
oh your projects sound wonderful! Thank you for watching
Daisy and Grace (a U.K. based company) sell the QAYG hexagon templates on their website. Lilabelle lane also do one available from several online shops. MSQC sells the Daisy and Grace templates for those in the US.
thank you for the suggestions, I took a look but they aren't quite the right size for what I am doing but thank you
My daughter and I just discovered your videos today and we are in LOVE with your ideas! We love the method, the fabrics, your slow way of doing things, your utter enjoyment of what you do. Please keep making videos!! We love them!
Oh that’s so so lovely! Thank you! Really means a lot to me 🤗
Emma, I love your choice of fabrics! Watching your videos is a joy. I noticed you using your very special & beautiful thimble - are you still happy with it? Is it working well for you?
Thank you. Yes I love the thimble and use it every day, so glad I bought it, well worth the investment and it’s pretty too!
What a terrific project! I’ve already spent a small fortune on vintage fabrics, embroidered pieces and of course new fabrics - after a long serious illness (I’m on the mend) this is exactly what the doctor ordered. 🌸
I love you quilt. Yes i am making a quilt as you go quilt. Lol its a lot smaller than yours, but so fun to work on. Thank you so very much for sharing. You are so easy to listen to, and so good at explaining, so it is easy to understand. GOD Bless you!!!
oh thank you! that means a lot. take care. Thank you for watching
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful. Love what you have done with all those beautiful fabrics. It may sound weird but I imagine if I were to look at each hexagon long enough each character would come to life, become animated. Love the pink rotating cutting mat too. Thanks for sharing you beautiful work 😀🧵🪡
thank you! You know, that doesn't sound weird to me. I used to do that as I child to any fabric that had characters on, I can still remember that clearly now x
Emma, I've made three (all lap sized)! And I'm working on a fourth. Of the three I've finished, I'm keeping one for myself and giving one to each of my daughters. The fourth is being made with donated fabric from my local quilt shop and it will be donated to a nursing home. I am finishing the "floppy" edge with half hexies, so there will be two straight sides and two zigzag sides. Thank you so much for your original tutorial on how to do this! I find it so relaxing and just love that it is a quilt-as-you-go project that doesn't require machine quilting. I have been quilting each block as I finish it from point-to-point across, so it looks like a "triple X" inside each one. I'm already looking forward to what I might make next when I finish the one for the nursing home. The possibilities!! 😉😊🥰🧵🪡Yours is so sweet and lovely, soft and gentle - like you.
oh this is wonderful Diane, so lovely to hear how much you are enjoying this process and how special that your daughters will have one. It's very special that you are making one for a nursing home too, whoever will use it will get some much comfort from it I am sure. Thank you for watching
I absolutely love this quilt!! I am going to have to start making one! You are such an amazing teacher.
oh thank you! that's very kind. I am so glad you are going to give it a go, enjoy!
Love your fabrics. I,m in the states and went out looking for similar ones but couldn,t find any. Thanks for showing us yours. I will keep looking
Hope you find them 🌸
Hi Emma your quilt is beautiful. Your fabric choices are always lovely. The rotating cutting mat looks really useful, not seen one of those before.
Thank you so much! Yes it’s been a great purchase 🌸
Please can you tell me where you bought it or what make it is thankyou.
Thanks for sharing Emma, it’s beautiful. I love your style ;)
Thank you so much!
Hi Emma, your quilt is beautiful and coming on. I am making a baby quilt. My neice is having a little girl, I started back in February, and I have finished all the blocks I just have to stitch it together.x
That sounds so wonderful, enjoy Irene 🌸
This project inspired me to make my own with acufactum fabrics I had started collecting before. First I just used the front fabrics and a ruler to cut the backing fabrics, but now I have a You Hexie Thing Ruler which is a real gamechanger for me.
So glad you are making one too, thanks for watching
Good day, Emma. I grabbed a cup of coffee and sat to thoroughly enjoy this video. Thank you so much for being here. Yes, I’m getting prepared to start this hexie project with a friend.
Oh what a lovely comment, thank you, so glad you are making one too
I always enjoy seeing your progress on your quilt. It has inspired me to get back to making some blocks for mine. I have been piecing several quilts but I think it will be nice to take a little break from that and work on my quilt too. Happy quilting, Emma………………….
Thank you so much Pam, I’m so glad you enjoyed it. It’s a lovely project to dip in and out of in between other things isn’t it 🌸
I just received my serious reader light. I absolutely love it. Got the same one as you.
I’m so glad you love it too Patricia, I use mine every day, can’t stitch without it now 😊🌸
I love hexagons designs can you please show how to make hexagons pincushion
I do have a pincushion tutorial on my channel
Thank you for another wonderful video i love what you have done so far its so pretty and just love the fabrics thank you
Thank you so much! I appreciate you watching
I am so enjoying doing this project, each hexagon is different & a joy to do, like you Emma, I don't want it to end. Just to let you know Emma after your recommendation, I contacted Sew & Quilt, and they now make a 4 inch😢 hexagon acrylic template, with the option to choose one without the seam allowance, making it the perfect size for cutting out the backing fabrics for this project. Happy stitching.
Oh that’s great news, thanks so much for letting me know. So glad you are enjoying this project too Jane, thanks for watching 🌸
I love your choice of fabrics and love watching you make your quilt. Everything is perfect, including the background music. Thank you.
Oh that is so lovely, thank you for such kind words Wendy 🌸
Your quilt looks so beautiful, & is coming along nicely! You are so right, Emma, take your time, & really enjoy the process! I have not started one myself, but it is on my bucket list! I love seeing your progress, so definitely, please keep showing us!!
thank you so much Grace! so glad you like seeing it. There are too many projects and not enough hours in the day aren't there. Take care x
Beautiful, as always Emma! I always love to receive a notifaction that you have posted a new video. It was great to see how you chose fabric colours & patterns, which I always find daunting, & how you decided how to place them. It’s so lovely to see you take your time over this piece & that there’s no rush to complete it.🥰💕
Oh thank you Elaine, that really means a lot to me. So glad the video was useful. Thanks for watching
Hi Emma - thankyou for your videos and free templates. I am about to make a couple of items as Christmas gifts. I am looking forward to using hexiform for the 1st time. Your videos are so calming to listen to and easy to understand. ❤❤❤
thank you so much! I am so glad x
I loved seeing your beautiful fabrics and the way you blended them together. As always your videos and ideas are so interesting and soothing to watch. I love the handstitching and how relaxing it can be to sit and stitch. Take care Emma xx
Thank you so much Jacqueline, so glad you enjoyed it, Take care x
I have a large basket full of the fabrics I've chosen to work with and I'm collecting more as I find them! I have some cut out and I'm just so enjoying the relaxed approach to this project!! I've done other things in between but always look forward to coming back to this one! I absolutely love your choice of fabrics!!
That’s a lovely way to approach it Sandy; little by little it will grow. Take care
Lovely hexagons. The fabrics are so beautiful. Thank you for bringing us along with your quiet stitching project. Take care. ❤😊
Thank you so much!
Your fabrics are so pretty thanks for sharing I need to start mine
thank you Iris, hope you can start soon
Just wanted to say how much I love your utube videos. Sew inspiring. If your still on the look out for acrylic shapes I get my custom made shapes cut at Kallosphere. Small family run company in Bournemouth. Liz and Mark are great. They will be able to help with your hexagon shape for your QAYG. Xx
thank you so much, that means a lot. and thank you for the suggestion, I have never heard of them so will check them out x
I made one as a wall hanging for over my bed. I filled in the top edge with half hexagons and I didn’t care for it so I removed them. It was very fiddly trying to get a perfect straight line across the top.
I did think when I saw myself back on the video holding it up that it might be more of a challenge than I thought to put the half hexies in as the gaps looked like they could stretch. I do like the look of the zig zag edge and I am sure yours is beautiful
Thank you for watching
I simply love this!
I absolutely love your project I started on one but don't have the beautiful fabrics like yours I won't continue until I do get some
I’m going to repurpose fabrics and include some precious scraps too, you can make it beautiful no matter what you use 😊🌸
Thanks! I love your videos!
thank you so so much! that is so kind of you and very much appreciated x
Emma. I love the little flowers that you embroider. Would you be able to suggest a book with embroidery like what you do? Thanks for any help you can suggest.
Your secret garden door is a favorite.
❤💚❤
thank you. I haven't got a book with designs in but I have a book with all of the stitches in which is very useful called Mary Thomas's dictionary of embroidery stitches
Daisy & Grace have 2 piece acrylic templates for quilt as you go in different shapes. They have a uk website too. I got my hexi templates in the US at Missouri Star Quilt. Thought you might like to check them out if you haven’t seen them.
Thank you! They don’t have the sizes I need but thanks so much
Love this quilt is coming along so nicely 🌿💕
Thank you! 😊
I’ve found those acufactum fabrics here online , yes they are so pretty. So many options, even just five put together like a grandmothers flower would be a nice on a bedside table , perhaps a table runner also. I did buy the template set but have not used it. It’s on the list.
so glad you found them Tracy! they are super pretty. Thank you for watching
What an inspiring video! So joyful & delivered in such a lovely way. Also, so pleased to hear you mention Elmhirst fabrics … my favourite GoTo place … they have the most beautiful fabrics & excellent customer service
And the light you mention is now on my WishList, thank you 😊
I am so glad you enjoyed the video, thank you Julie. And Elmhirst fabrics are amazing aren't they
I am really looking forward to seeing your progress, as time goes by, on your quilt.
I haven't started making one yet. It is definitely on my list though. I love hand stitching. And I have always loves quilts so I can definitely see me making one at some point (hopefully starting soon. Maybe in the new year).
thank you so much! New year is a good time to start something like this. Thank you for watching
Just watched this video again, Emma! It is so beautiful, & I love to watch your process, & stitching! It’s very relaxing! Can you please share your source, for the beautiful embroidery blocks that you have in this project? Thank You, Emma! Always a delight to watch you!💜
Thank you so much Grace. I’m afraid they are vintage transfers from old magazines but I will see if I can find a way to share them with you 🌸
I knowExactly how you feel about the process of making this quilt. I’ve collected all my vintage embroideries and plan to begin cutting my hexagons soon.
oh that's wonderful, enjoy every stitch
This is such a beautiful project. I have a couple of hexagon projects going on, they are both small projects so I expect to finish them. I would love to make a project with Liberty fabrics someday.
Thank you for watching Freda, I hope you do make a Liberty project one day
Loving it.Just beautiful.Taking my time too!
thank you! enjoy each and every stitch
Absolutely wonderful👏👏👏🥰❤️😀
Thank you so much!
It's gorgeous, your choice of colours and fabrics are so pretty, I'm such a scared-y mixing a lot of fabric but I really, really want to, I'd be better pulling the fabrics out of a bag like a raffle. I think the large hexagon could be cut from a thick acetate, maybe. Thank you for the update.
Thank you so much Alison Mary, really appreciate you watching. I think the more you mix fabrics the easier it gets 🌸
Your fabrics are gorgeous ❤
