So, I think I found something I would actually like doing with my scraps! I bought this great hexagon template from Tabslot a while back...Jill designed it just for me *smile* I wanted a hexagon big enough that I could use it to cut layer cakes without much waste. So this baby measures 10 inches, point to point. It's huge...and what a great way to use up some scraps! So I sewed some strips together and started cutting...this is what I have so far!
These puppies are entirely machine-pieced...and I was too anxious to try this method that I only made 7 hexies! The best part of this is that this 7 piece unit measures about 24 inches across and 30 inches down the center! Not bad for only 7 pieces. After seeing how easy it was to do, I cut an entire layer cake that I have been dying to work with...as if I needed another WIP on the list. I am planning to have that one sewn together tonight and will post pics tomorrow for WIP Wednesday...hopefully I can have a Finished Friday post sometime soon...sheesh!!
SO CUTE! Love them!
