With this quilt I am trying to use the fabrisc I have in my stash ( with the odd new purchase) so its quite scrappy and not sure how they will look put together. I am having fun with it though as its so fascinating how the look of each rosette can change by the placement of fabrics. There is a <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/1481806698762201/">facebook group</a> where you can see these amazing versions of the quilt. Its been a learning curve too, as I am not very experienced in colour theory, and have learned to see tones in fabrics and so on, even bough myself a wheel and a red glass to look through :)temari by the seahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16188003427433414912noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8996108052625017378.post-37540604941365785952014-08-24T05:29:00.001-07:002014-08-24T05:29:31.711-07:00Hand applique raw edge for the first time!<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Finally a picture to share. I made this for my mother its hand pieced hexagon pillow and machine quilted. Its the first time to make a complete pillow and loved it from the start. I plan to make more time permitting as it was so much fun. It was a project I could take with me.<br />
<br />
I plan to make a smaller pillow with 1/2 inch hexxies.... see you then :)temari by the seahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16188003427433414912noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8996108052625017378.post-16918661066577598212013-08-27T10:20:00.004-07:002013-08-27T10:20:28.566-07:00Hand quilting<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Here is my progress on my daughters quilt so far. I am not sure if I want to add more on the side white borders or just leave it for a quilting design. I tried to have it very scrappy and picked fabrics I liked at the time of making each hexagon. Sometimes bright, sometimes dark,</div>

I will be hand quilting this quilt.</div>

I made these blocks whilst I found some time. I plan to add them to a sampler. These were made using jelly roll strips. Meanwhile I got backing fabric for the quilt top I have ready, It is the one with hexagons for my daughter Sonya. But our new house doesnt have the space to baste it. I will try shortly to use the local library or hobby shop. Ideally it would be great to finish it for my daughter soon as she has been asking for it...... I also have my youngests daughter foundation pieced quilt but I think I want to add more borders. And ofcourse there are other quilt projects I also want to try...lol....</div>
