In the last weeks I kept this project hidden in a box – I thought I don’t have time for it.
But you don’t know when a sister comes, demanding :”I want to stitch hexagons, I have only 30 minutes, let’s stitch!”. So yesterday I cut some hexagon templates and fabric and now I have made some progress- I added the dark grey hexies; 100 more hexies and I will finish it.
I keep thinking how to quilt it. It has to be something directional, to highlight the cubes (like the one I did on this quilt). I think I will have to practice on paper first- it’s something I like.

This looks wonderful!
What a lot of work….and it looks fantastic!!
Can we see the back? How you stitched them together?
English paper piecing; I basted the fabric to paper templates with thread.
love your hexies – are you doing EPP? love the color layout
Yesterday? You started this yesterday? That looks like weeks of work. That is going to be very beautiful.
Oh, NO! I did not start it yesterday! Yesterday I added only the dark grey hexagons.
Beautiful hexagons! This fusions fabric line is my favorite tone on tone. I love the texture. Thanks for sharing … 🙂 Pat
Thanks to your excellent design/color choices, there is fabulous dimension! Lovely!
I love the pattern you are making with your hexies. I have been struggling with what to do with mine. You have given me another layout to try. Thanks.
Love it! Great to see another way to put them together.
Love the dark gray with the pretty colors.
Looks wonderful!
This is beautiful – will you putting anything in the middle of the hexies?
Another great design. I like how you can add dimension with only play the shades of color.
The 3D look quilt and the fusions fabrics, two things on my wish list. Because of you!!! Thanks!
