Obsession….

Obsession is defined as the act of letting a thought or action rule your thoughts or actions.  Ok, then, call me obsessed!  I have been spending my time making hexies….every waking moment.

My Sunday Afternoon Applique met on Sunday and we had some awesome Show and Tell.  Kathy F. stitched this gorgeous quilt, depicting a gazebo and some beautiful spring and summer flowers.

Next, is Dolores’s quilt made of Civil War fabrics.  Once it is quilted, it will hang in her front hall.  Wouldn’t that be a treat to see every time you walked in your front door?

Helene’s block is beautiful!  The quilt Helene is making has 16 of this same block.  Can’t wait to see it finished! Check out the background. Spiffy!

  2. I always love your posts – so inspiring. Any chance you could ask Helene what us the name of her quilt pattern – or who designed it. Love it!

  3. Those hexies are a little addictive, or the whole paper piecing thing. I think the fussy cutting of some fabrics and hand work is why it seems to be a natural alternative quilting technique to appliqué lovers. Your group certainly turns out beautiful quilts.
