Hexy love.

I feel a bit odd beginning this blog by explaining that my community art teaching seems to be winding down until September. However I am tentatively planning ideas for the evening classes I hope to run at Hereford college of Arts over the next academic year. Numbers permitting I hope to deliver both 'Sewing for the Home' and 'Crochet' courses over 8-10 week periods.

In preparation for 'Sewing for the Home' I have discovered patchwork quilting! This is something I have always wanted to do and at the moment I feel I finally have the time. I have started off looking at pieced hexagons, or hexies. Although they are time consuming, I'm already in love and can't wait to see the finished piece. Find a sneak peek below!


I plan to post a tutorial at some point, however in the mean time many other guides can be found by searching Google (e.g. Fat quarterly)
