I am at my Dad's quite often for a night or two at a time. It is nice to have some kind of handwork to do while I am visiting.
I decided to start another hexagon project!
This one is using 3/8" hexagons.
I am replicating the design of an antique quilt I saw on Pinterest.
It is from a collection of quilts at the Wales National Museum

Isn't it fabulous!!! Definitely a long term project!
And my tuffet is in use.
I love it so much that I am planning the second one. I might try it in leather or wool from old men's jackets. Time to start looking at the thrift stores to see what I can find. The foam I used in this one was very dense so I didn't make it as rounded as the pattern showed. This suits me wonderfully.
Happy Stitching!
ReplyDeleteWill your piece stay as a larger hexagon shape or will you add to the four corners for a square or rectangle?
That is going to be wonderful when you're done. I can't even begin to imagine tackling that!
