Instructions

I inwardly groaned when I saw the handwork involved, but I decided it wouldn't kill me to do it, and when I actually sat down to do it, it didn't take very long and I found the project surprisingly satisfying. Not saying I want to make a whole quilt this way, however!

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

The handwork on these little hexies didn't take anywhere as long as my active imagination convinced me they would. I enjoyed the process, which surprised me, as I was not looking forward to these. I think I used more energy procrastinating, then I did sewing. ;-)

The hexies are all hand stitched together, but I used a machine stitch to attach them to the yellow background.

Wow -- so you put this all together by hand?!?
