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.
I have even graduated to Six Pointed Stars. Yikes! What next?
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.
Take a close look at the back. Kathy F. in am impeccable stitcher!
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!
And finally, I showed the group my finished Civil War Bride.
Til next time…

Yes it is!
I’ve just ordered the Civil War Bride pattern. I love yours!!
I love your Bride Quilt – I am on my last two blocks and thought I was not going to applique the borders. – then i saw yours!! I amy change my mind – WOW!
Absolutely beautiful! Now what are you planning with those really cute hexies??
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!
Oh my word!! What beautiful work! Have fun with your “obsession” (it’s funny how we get hooked on something, isn’t it?!)
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.
Hexies are addictive and what a talented group you all are!
