HeLP for Hexie-aholics - 12/17/12

Recently, needing a change, I resurrected an older hexie project - The Bathroom Floor quilt, so named because it's inspired by the bathroom floor in my office.

I'll be doing the borders as Seminole Piecing - a favorite technique I haven't used in a while so I'm excited to get to that point.

The highlighted/yellow in the diagram below is what's done already - still a lot to do...



Alrighty my fellow hexie-aholics - share what you've been working on. We don't care if it's new or old but please make sure you link to the specific post and not your blog as a whole. If you need help linking, Bonnie has a great tutorial on her blog.

    Since I have not gotten anything done on my hexie quilt, I shared an old post of mine! I should get some quilting done this weekend while I'm out of town though!

    Oh, your bathroom floor quilt has made me want to do hexies, something I thought I would never ever ever do! LOL. So much for that!

    How did you get the neutral tiles to look like they have grout in them.

    It is incredible

    I love hexies and have made two GFG quilts. I've been saving the blow-out cards from magazines and have a hexagon punch to do another hexie quilt. I, too, take photos of floors. *smile*

    Rats! I don't have anything hexie to share ... but I have an idea ... I'll try to get my act together by Wednesday! LOL! In the meantime, your Bathroom Floor quilt (and you know I love the name) is coming along 'swimmingly'! :)
