Design Wall Monday - 5/9/16

One extra...how did that happen?

blue "scissors" pieced hexies were constructed as leader-enders

I made (16) 1" too short...

yellow "cogs" pieced hexies were constructed as leader-enders

Then I made (16) 1/2" too long...


Finally!!! Just right!!!!

I love how the striped batik "surrounds" each wonky 4-patch

This i-spy quilt has 100 different hexie fabrics!!!
I'm thinking the name should be something along the ideas of "99 bottles of beer on the wall"...

Funny how the final quilt is really different from my initial idea.

Like Little red riding hood with the beds "too big, too small" lol
It is funny how designs of one's own turn out so differently from the original idea...at least for me, too. I like this I Spy--really cute...hugs, Julierose

Love how this is set - gives added interest and movement to the I Spy.

This turned out really fun!
I think it looks like the squares are dancing. Names that come to mind--Hexie Hop, or Hexie Hustle--or what about Hexi-can Jumping Beans? *LOL*

HAHAHA! to Janet's Hexi-can Jumping Beans!! I do rather like Hexie Hustle, though! Maybe Hexies to My Soul? :)
