Hexie Bib!


Who can resist a hexie bib?  Absolutely adorable!  This was made by Nettie Pete - her blog is aquiltisnice.blogspot.com.  It looks like some fussy cutting was done - love me some fussy cutting!

Hexie Pillow!


Isn't this colorful?  Angela Pingel designed this project and she even has a tutorial HERE.  Her blog is new to me, but I'll definitely be adding it to my list to read.  I suggest you go there immediately in fact!  She got pictures there of a new sewing room.....DROOLING.

As someone who is moving to a new house in the next few weeks, I may steal some of her ideas!  Thanks, Angela, for letting me share!

Log Cabin Hexie!


Isn't this unique?  This eye-catching log cabin hexie is by Sandi Suggs of Chattanooga, TN.  I love the color combination and the contrast between the "logs."  Sandi is definitely a HEXIE LOVER!  I'll be sharing more of her work, so stay tuned!

Gerda's Hexies!


Gerda sent me a picture of her fresh hexie quilt - reminds me of sherbet!  Yum!

Gerda is a good friend from the Birmingham Quilters Guild.  She used our new hexie technique (from our upcoming book) to make these.  She doesn't have a picture of the finished quilt, but I saw it - beautiful!

Thanks for sharing, Gerda!

FYI, I realized this afternoon that the e-mail link on the sidebar wasn't working.  All fixed now!  So if you have a hexie quilt, sent me a photo.  I'd love to share it here!

Colorful Hexie Diamonds


I'm so excited to share another blogger's work-in-progress.  Her name is Katherine Kelly-Ballinger and her blog is kellygirlquilts.blogspot.com.  What a FABULOUS hexie design.  This is the ultimate scrap project - wouldn't you agree?  And the black and white borders set the quilt off so nicely.  I can't wait to follow the progress of this one!

Do you have a hexie project to share?  Contact us!  E-mail address on sidebar.

Mini Quilt with Hexies

The following post is from my co-author, Peggy G. Rhodes!




Looking for the perfect special occasion gift?  My good friend, Virginia Bonham, gave me one of the Ackfeld Table Stands for Quilts for my Birthday along with a November themed mini-quilt.  Each month on the day of my birthday (6th) she gives me a new quilt for the next month.  Of course, May had to be flowers and you can imagine my delight when I saw the great hexie flowers with yellow button centers.  Since we submitted our book manuscript about Hexies during May, this quilt will always have a special place in my heart.  It is truly wonderful to be remembered in such a nice way each month.  ----Peggy
