(This will be my hand piecing project for 2019. I have it right here ready to go when I want to avoid doing something else.)
This was a fascinating year. I started no less than 5 quilts. Had the good sense to take a few scraps for some of the workshops I attended. I also went to India on my second ministry trip and got to speak to an audience of about 10,000 at a crusade. That was fun. Actually, it was terrifying. But I had a very good translator. And then met my sister and niece in Thailand for a weekend after.
Attended my first AQS in Columbus Ohio. Here is where I saw one of those one-block-wonders so bought some fabric and cut half of it for stack-n-whack since I knew how to do it now. Sort of. After I had hand pieced a lot of them.
I realized that if I made half the hexie, I could sew them together in rows really quickly without any Y seams. My cleverness can be so intoxicating.
Sometimes. These ended up in a bag on a shelf somewhere and I lost sight of it until today.
Blessings,
Chris

I've made a one block wonder, it was fun. I enjoyed turning the triangles to find the prettiest setting. I made mine in half hexies too but I did all my work on the machine. You choice lovely fabric for your project.
