I pulled out my triangular scraps which were large enough to give me 2.5" and 3" when cut from the right angle. I also had some 4" squares for larger hexies. I like the fabrics as they're bright. When I get my other ones I'll cut those up to add to these ones and make some more wedges for my pillows.

| The orange square is a post-it note. Perfect 3" square! |
I also cut a diamond template to make some paper pieced stars.
Then I got to work on sewing up some hexie flowers from the ones I'd already basted and sewn into rows. Its much easier to pair/trio them before sewing them into flowers.
Hand sewing is so much more relaxing. As much as I love and miss Jano, more hand sewing may be in my near future.

ReplyDeletelove paper piecing - it's so relaxing!
ReplyDeleteI love EPP, one of my favourite pastimes! your hexies are looking great
ReplyDeleteI guess easy is in the eye of the beholder, or the eye of the needle, perhaps! I much prefer to sew one to each edge of the center one, and then sew the sides together, after taking the paper out of the middle piece. =) Your hexie looks great!
ReplyDeleteI love seeing so many people get into making hexies! Yours look really great!
