Happy Honeycomb Hexagons

Ok, I am just having So Much Fun cutting these hexagons. Something about the shape makes every already-pretty fabric positively glow!

Yes, those are ginormous hexagons - 4” along the finished straight edges.

The generous size is all the better for fussy cutting big, splashy floral motifs like these beauties by Anna Maria Horner! See this bundle for something similar.

This ruler set is designed to coordinate with the Honeycomb Stars quilt pattern, to be released September 20th. Use the smaller ruler to make a throw quilt, like my Starry Night version, or the bigger ruler for a queen/king bed quilt. Want to reserve yours? Contact Tales of Cloth (Australia, ships worldwide) or Dragonfly Quiltworks to preorder.

All too soon I’m finished cutting my mid-value frolicking florals. Time to sun them and take some well-deserved glamor shots.

Then I’m on to cutting my low value lovelies. Every print lifts my spirits. It’s such a treat to work with each pretty piece of art.

Making this second version of Honeycomb Stars is my chance to streamline the process for efficiency and ease. Well that and to try out the larger scale version! So far, so good.

I hope you’ll be sewing along with us in October! The pattern will release later this month so that you have plenty of time to gather fabrics and make space on your sewing table.
