I have been looking forward to this task for SO LONG! Taking out the papers I so laboriously stitched over the last couple of years was great fun, part of the fun was seeing all the papers I cut from The Beans Books I used to make the templates. Before anyone wonders why I chose the potentially collectors books, please know that I only used really damaged books from the charity shop that were destined for landfill. Recycling them like this has to be a very creative reuse I'm sure you'll agree!
I have narrowed down my choice of backing fabric too and will order it soon. Then I'll decide on wadding and stitching. So there will be many more videos about this quilt!
But I am going to miss the hand stitching of the hexagons and so I feel like I might design a new quilt to take the place of this one on my design board!
EDITED TO ADD!!
I am very bad at MATHS! always have been, so when I told you the number of hexagons I don't know where I got that number from?
Here are my stats
there are 50 rows of hexies, one row has 29 and the other has 28 hexagons.
So add 28 to 29 (57) and multiply by 25 (hall of 50) and the total should be
1425
not whatever I said.
I'm really sorry folks!
I thought there were a lot more that 753!!!!!

On Earth Day I posted a video about the fund-raising project at my local village hall where £3000+ was raised for charities benefiting Ukraine. I was so pleased to be a tiny part of that day! Well done everyone involved. Check it out on Patreon.
