HeLP-iversary winner!!!

Today's the day we announce the winner of our 6th anniversary of the HeLP for Hexie-aholics give away!!

Not quite "red sky in the morning - sailor take warning"
but it was pretty close with 100% humidity and hazy skies.

Luckily I cross the creek twice on my early morning walks
and the temp drops about 10 degrees at the creek.

Ok - so I'm not smart enough on this overly muggy Monday to figure out how to copy the random.com number generator to this post but I told random.com that I had 6 entries and it gave me #5 as the winner. That would be Paul Burega who blogs at A Dad who dyes fabric and quilts.

And what has Paul won the crowd eagerly asks??!! 



Paul has won a hexagon composition book (so affordable at Wally World that I bought all 8 of them), a hexie FQ (sadly one of only 2 hexie fabrics I saw at 3 different quilt stores on Friday) and a zipper candy bag made from his favorite candy.

Paul I sent you an email so if you'll respond with your address and your favorite candy I'll make the bag and get these goodies sent off to you. 

Congrats to Paul and thanks to everyone who joined in the fun!! It's hard to believe I have been doing HeLP for 6 years, let alone stitching hexies for 7.5 years!

  4. Ivy Thimble in Victor had at least one hexie fabric in two colors. I immediately thought of you and would have texted you aphoto, but I didn't have your number in my phone. Obviously I should have taken a pic of them anyway. If they still have it the next time I get over there, I'll take the photo.

  5. Thanks everyone. I'm so excited! Managed to sew some hexi's watching TV this weekend.

    I normally don't see any hexi fabrics. But I did run across this from an email just after this post came in, and I thought I would share with the group.

    There are a whole set in different colors if you search on "Ajisai". Great backing fabric for a hexi quilt.

    Enjoy your Labor Day Weekend.
