is slow going and I have to work on our bed to help take the weight. I have arthritis in my
hands and am also getting RSI so if anyone has any handy hints to help with this please contact
me as I want to keep quilting (of course!!!!). I will eventually put this on a wall in our bedroom as I have painted the wall behind our bed a pale lime green. My favourite colors are lime green
and fushia pink. You mightn't be able to tell that from previous quilts but as I photograph
more quilts you will always see some green or pink somewhere in different shades.
These fussy cut hexagons are for another quilt a way off yet but thought you might be
interested in them now.
Have finally picked out the centre for this one so will put that in soon.

ReplyDeleteI love your fussy cut hexagons! They are amazing!! Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteYour fussy cut hexagons are amazing! A new look indeed!
ReplyDeleteI have fussy cut a lot of hexagons without ever thinking it through to the point you have. Thanks for a fresh look at this wonderful traditional pattern!
ReplyDeleteI am loving those hexagons! Do tell what you are hoping to make with them. Your blog is lovely.
ReplyDeleteWhat you create with hexagons is really inspiring, thanks for sharing your ideas.
ReplyDeleteYour hexagons are beautiful! Thanks for showing them.
ReplyDeleteOMG .... your hexagon flowers are wonderful!
ReplyDeleteYour Tree of Life quilt is beautiful! And I love your hexagons. I am always amazed at how different a piece of fabric looks when fussy cut and sewn like that. Dying to see what you turn them in to.
ReplyDeleteVery well done, the patterns you made are amazing!
ReplyDeleteI love that tree of life quilt. The hexagons are out of this world. It almost makes me want to do some. If only I didn't have so much on the go.
ReplyDeleteAre those hexagons edible? I think so! Lovely:) Thank you for sharing your UFOs as well. Is the tree of life your own pattern? I would not be surprised, seeing how inventive those hexies are. Expressions of an artist at play!
ReplyDeleteYour hexagons are (hands down) some of the most beautiful I've ever seen! If you don't mind...I'd love to talk about them on my blog. Love that you used some of the same Yuwa fabrics that I have too!

Welcome to blogland. Your fussy cut hexagons are looking great
ReplyDeleteThe hexagons look great - very eyecatching. I love your hexagon quilt too, very similar to a top I have sitting in the cupboard waiting for someone to quilt it! Welcome to blogland and nice to see another Aussie out there.
ReplyDeleteThe tree of life is great .... the hexagons are out of this world!

Lovely to see you in person yesterday.
ReplyDeleteGreat blog. Well done! It's just such a treat to see so many of your lovely quilts in the one spot, a bit of a trip down memory lane for me!
Wow those are truly fantabulous. I'm itching to see what you do with them.
ReplyDeleteI hadn't realised you were a new blogger. Best of luck with your blog, I've certainly enjoyed looking at your quilts and will be back to see what else you're up to.
ReplyDeleteWonderful combinations of fabrics and colors in your hexagons!
ReplyDeleteHi Sharron,
ReplyDeleteThanks for calling over at mine.
I was wondering whether you would mind if I put a link to your blog on a group blog that I am a member of? It's @ http://hexagonquilt-along.blogspot.com/ I see you are already a follower of 2 of the members, Daisyquilts and Once upon a time. Unless you are already a member of course which I have overlooked?
Hi Sharron, welcome to blogland! Lynne sent me over fromthe Great Hexagon Quilt Along. Your fussy cuts are wonderful! The only advice I can offer on the hands is to ease the movements you know make it worse: I use a "turbo mouse," an upside-down mouse with the ball on top, to aid with my carpal tunnel and it helps immensely.
ReplyDeleteThese are wonderful! Please keep posting on the progress of this project. I'm interested in your process. Is it planned out or does it happen "organically"? I've added your blog to the list that I follow!
ReplyDeleteI followed a link from the Great Hexagon Quilt Along to see your amazing fussy cut hexies. Since I am also hooked on lime, fuschia & dragonflies, I'll be following your work to borrow ideas.
ReplyDeleteOMG!! Those hexies are GORGEOUS!! ~karen
ReplyDeleteOMGoodness!! These are ADORABLY BEAUTIFUL!! WOW!!
ReplyDeleteElly sent me over. As she said OMGoodness!!
ReplyDeleteThese are wonderful!
I will be following along to see the completion. Can't wait.

Jeepers woman, your fussy cutting scares me! I hope no one ever expects me to measure up to your standards in fussy cutting. Very well done....am looking forward to seeing what the finished quilt looks like. Hugs Naomi
