I just finished off the hand sewing on the binding of this table topper. This one was made with a sidekick ruler and a pattern by Julie Hermans. The fabric was purchased as part of a FQ bundle in Michigan last Fall when I was at the Beaver Island Quilt Retreat. This topper is a gift. I have it done well ahead of time!
Christine was over to sew last night and we each made another hexagon topper--this time using both the hex n more and the sidekick rulers.
Tonight, I added a 2" border and quilted it as well as adding the binding.
The rulers make these pieced hexagons a "piece of cake". Now that I have the rulers figured out, I hope to figure out my own patterns for future projects...
This topper will be staying at my house.
No quilting in the gazebo tonight...to much wind and thunder rumbling around. It never did rain tonight though. Maybe tomorrow night...
Love the hexie table topper - nice colours. I'm just getting into hexies myself. Must check out the hex n more ruler
ReplyDeleteYour topper looks great. I really need to pick up that ruler of hers and make one of those myself.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful colour combination. Very nice little topper. Always nice to find other Canadian bloggers : )
