More Hexagons....

Well it's pretty much an addiction...I am REALLY into hexagons right now! I've been trying to find the right pattern for all my glorious Amy Butler fabric and I finally decided on hexagons. It really makes the fabric stand out and plus they are super fun to make! Let me know what you think!! I've made thirty hexagons today and will continue tomorrow...check back at the end of the day tomorrow for more!

Hexagon Crazy!

Okay, so I'm totally addicted to making these little hexagons! They are super easy and I can do them ANYWHERE! I can sew them at work, in the car, while watching t.v. absolutely anywhere and they are ADDICTING!! They are great for using up all my scraps. I'm not sure what I want to do with them yet, so if anyone has any ideas please let me know!

Sneak Peak of my new quilt!

Before I left Houston, my mom got the new 3 sister's line of fabric called Martinique by Moda!! I really liked the fabric and decided I needed some! I immediately got on my EQ6 and designed a quilt for the fabric. Here is a sneak peak of what I'm working on! Hopefully I'll have the top done after lunch today(which is currently getting fixed on the stove as we speak)!!! I will tell you that I named it Ruffle Quilt which is a hint of what is to come!!
Izzy is in an "I need attention", I mean "helpful" mood today!

New Years Resolution

For 2010 I have decided to make 12 quilts in 12 months...that means I'm planning on making 1 quilt per month! The first 3 months will be patterns that have flowers on them to be used at my mom's shop (SunFlower Quilts) for the shop hop at the end of March. Her theme is "Garden Theme" so we need to make lots of garden/flower stuff to display around the shop! I am so excited and I finished picking all my patterns last night!
January's Quilt is "I'm Blushing" from Moda Bake Shop.

Once I finish the quilt I will post a photo of what mine looks like!! I am so excited and I'm gonna start today!
