Here hangs my very first hexagon project; all hand quilted and finally up in my living room;
This is one of my favorite blocks ........along with
This one and
here you can see the left-over pieces I used to make this one up...separately it really looks kind of strange, don't you think? But on the whole piece it really (surprisingly) blends in very well...

Another hot/humid day inside....hugs, Julierose, La Blageuse
