    Wow, these look great! I'm itching to start, but I have a few other things to wrap up first. I also can't decide what fabric to use . . . decisions, decisions!

    Oh, yes! I have been admiring these beauties! I am determined that tonight is the night for me to get started! If only we didn't have to have dinner EVERY night! It really gets in the way of my after work sewing. Sheesh!

    Fun! Personally, I like those hexagons a lot more than the little ones that are pieced together. I know those are very popular, too, though. I love the fabrics in the first picture especially.

    Oooh, so wonderful. Loving this way of making hexagons. Going to have to give this a try. I am wanting one of those 60 Degree Double-Strip Rulers by Creative Grids. Definitely my next purchase. Thanks Julie for introducing me to this great tool.

    These all look great! Really wish I could participate in this, but it just can't happen for me right now. I'm definitely following along, though and may try this at a later point.

    I love seeing all your glorious quilts and the beautiful fabrics you buy. Since I am just beginning to quilt, (slowly and carefully) and you inspire me, I gave you an award. I hope you don't mind. It's posted on my blog.

    Thanks!

    I like these hexes waaaaay better than the little ones. Although the little ones ARE handy for a take-along project.
