Summer Sewing Pieced Hexagons

Summer Sewing Pieced Hexagons

Printed Shapes for Pieced Hexagons

It’s June 1 and I’m ready with lots of hexagons, diamonds, and triangles—printed and ready to play.

Scroll down to see what I do with them—and to jump on a tempting offer!

Playing with shapes. This looks okay.

Hmmm. . .

Freezer Paper Window Templates

Maybe I should give it some oomph with some fussy cutting.

Freezer paper templates give me better results than acrylic and show me the finished size.

I like this better—plus fussy cutting with freezer paper templates only takes a minute.

Hybrid Piecing For a Fast Start

I want to start sewing by machine because I love Louise (Featherweight). (Monkey says I’m just impatient but I do love Louise.)

Hand Piecing Makes it Portable

I’ll do the rest by hand on the porch. It’s too beautiful to stay inside.

I love a line to sew along! (It all started with Quilted Diamonds. One thing led to another, says Monkey.)

That went fast.

Of course, I used continuous stitching and circling the intersection. (Searchable, eh?)

A quick press. Voilà!

Are you sewing Pieced Hexagons with me? I would love to see yours. “It was a plan to promote the happiness of all.” (Emma, Ch 53)

A Tempting Offer? Oh, yes!

I have extended the intro sale price on the new Hexagons & More shape collection for a few more days.

Thank you for visiting. Summertime is time for fun together.
