A lot of times in quilting you can get intimidated by a new technique. But I am here today to tell you--DO NOT fear piecing hexagons! They are one of my favorite ways to piece a quick-sew quilt because the blocks are large and the quilts themselves come together very quickly when you start sewing the rows together.

There is just something so fun about creating ... View the Post
