I have another project that should be finished this summer for my county fair and 2 or 3 more lined up for when that one is done! I have also collected numerous fun EPP shapes (coffins, jewels, tumblers, etc) and amassed quite an inspiration file. It's a sickness that I don't plan to find a cure for!!Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00862692878882330794noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-8907654313672545242012-05-21T15:20:02.102-04:002012-05-21T15:20:02.102-04:00Bonnie, I just so admire all you do and I love to ...Bonnie, I just so admire all you do and I love to follow your posts. *Vicarious? Anyway, especially enjoying the photos of the hexies ;) I have a few going on myself! <br />Just got Matilda's Framed Hexagon Patchwork Template Set for a little variety of hexi fun. (Actually ordered 4 sets because shipping is so high from Aussie, and figured I might as well make it worth while. Couldn't find them online anywhere else but Australia. Ended up ordering from Cookies and Cream Craft. I have some quilty friends that will love these and I can give them as little gifts sometime. <br />Anyway, thanks again for sharing....<br />Kathy Kirby<br />skkirby@frontiernet.netAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-61591875924954506252012-05-21T13:24:25.766-04:002012-05-21T13:24:25.766-04:00I think I have it at least as bad as you Bonnie, I...I think I have it at least as bad as you Bonnie, I have 3 hexie projects on the go (the main project and two offshoots from the leftover cuttings) and a box of 1/2" diamonds cut from the teeny weeny scraps that were just too big to throw away, that I may put papers in one day!

I started my own hexie project a few weeks ago - got up early one morning and just started cutting from various pieces of fabric until I filled a little 6x9 box. I threw in a few needles and a spool of thread and as I get the chance, I stitch a few together. While I don't have a particular project in mind just yet, it will most likely be a "Grandma's Garden" throw.
