I know I'm not the only one who can relate to being swamped with life. Between working full time, going back to school, and planning a wedding, my sewing has been left behind. I know, I don't like it either. I have, however, been working on a project whenever I find a few spare moments. For years I have seen hexi projects, ones where the "blocks" are in a hexagon shape, and have wanted to do a project with it. I always assumed it was too difficult, partly because I made it out to be harder than it was, and partly because I had never found a good tutorial.

That all changed this past winter went I found the My Poppet Makes website. She has managed to explain the procedure, with pictures, in a way that makes it easy to understand. It is not a timely project but it is one that I want to conquer.

To see how to do the initial work, follow this link.

To see how to make a project with the hexies use this link.

Rest assured that I will be making more time for faster, more on target, projects. I should have more bags up in the near future as well as pictures of quilts I'm working on.
