Hexagons

Long time, no blogging - I know! Life is busy, busy, busy and crafting time is little unfortunately. I've been occupied with lots of jobs in the home of late and I'm thrilled to say I have a new carpet and a new piano in our study! With wallpaper and curtain fabric already earmarked I hope to have a completed room in the next few weeks.

Despite no quality creative time, I have managed to grab some snippets of time to do the odd thing. You may remember a post many months ago on a fabulous hexagon quilt I had seen in 'Vignette' magazine. Well after mulling it over I decided to give it a go. This is to be a long term project, but I'm glad to have a portable sewing project on the go:


I'm hoping it will be a bit of a stashbuster project and I plan to sew one completed block per week (ish!)- it's going to take a looooooooong time!

Some other hexagons I spied on a recent trip to Northern Ireland:
