I have been watching the progress of this quilt recently...WOW, is all I can say! Gail, from
I Think Sew made this amazing hexie quilt. Here's what she had to say about it:
Hi!
I've been watching your blog for a while now and am super excited to share something with you... I recently finished a big hexie quilt project... my Dragon Hexie Quilt. I started it in Oct 11 and just finished this month Feb 2013! There are 4,132 1/2" hexies making the total size of the quilt 72" wide by 54" tall. I free-motion-quilted the horizontal lines and woodgrain pattern in the background, and used french knots to quilt the actual dragon. I made it in the Chinese year of the Dragon for my husband who is a wood dragon in their astrology.
Anyway, felt like sharing!
Did you catch that???? 4,132 hexies? And only 1/2 inch???
Thanks so much for sharing, Gail! Absolutely fabulous work!!!!!
Do you have a hexie project to share? Let me know!
Just to count that many takes forever.
