If I don’t make quilts, I make bags. If I don’t make bags, I make boxes – my friend Teodora is right.
So here is my latest play session with hexagons.
The fabrics used are ” Vintage Modern” by Bonnie and Camille for Moda |
I started with this simple, tall hexagonal box.
Then I made a lid for it – I like to keep things out of dust.
Simple to make – just 7 hexagons.
Here it is – it looks like a little house – I am in love with the cute shape.
Then I made a hexagonal “cone”! Very simple again – 6 elongate triangles.
And it could be the roof of a new little house!
For this one below, I started with a hexagonal base.
How about this hexagonal roof, made out of 6 traingles ?
The other side.
I love this idea too.
This one is large-it could hold a lot of gifts!
This is something different – but the starting point is a hexagon too.
And finally I made a 6-side bowl. Easy – 7 hexagons.

Confession: sewing pretty little boxes is addictive!
Happy sewing!
