Pieced Bouquet and Quilt of 8,066 Hexagons from The Chester County Criswell Quilt

The Pieced Bouquet pattern appeared in the New York Daily News on Monday, January 8th, 1934.

A late addition to quiltdom, this design is almost modern in character. It can be varied by using a different print in each block, giving the quilt the appearance of an old-fashioned garden. The border is made of strips of green and yellow.

Hexagons, Grief, and Jazz from Quilting Studio Adventures

We went on a jazz cruise in January, obviously John’s. I would like points for not taking my sewing machine. However, I did take along a stack of big hexagons, some left from previous projects and some cut expressly for this project. I’m not a great hand piecer, but these hexagons, since they require y-seams, are really ideal for hand piecing. So every day I pieced away, watching the jazz shows on the closed circuit television. Of course I came out for meals! We were both happy for the week.

This jazz cruise quilt is a duplicate, of ...

Summer Picnic from Applique 'n Patch Quilting

There, my January binding challenge is done. Yeah me!

This was a LOT of hand stitching, but, so worth it in the end. Whenever this quilt is shown, everyone remarks at all the embroidery that I did. Nooooo ...... those images that you see are all from a pre-printed panel. All I did was fussy cut them down to size and appliqued them onto a hexagon frame.

A mix of white, cream and off-white fabrics have been used throughout. Below, it looks more beige on the right hand side, but it is just a shadow.

Then, I've also been asked ...

Jazz Cruise Quilt from Quilting Studio Adventures

I panicked as we were about to leave on the Jazz Cruise in late January. Not only were we going to hot places (never my favorite), there would be over 100 jazz musicians on the ship. To make myself happy, I grabbed the pile of hexies left over from the quilt I was working on when Doug was dying. Despite the sadness of the hexie quilt, it would be the perfect thing for a week cruise. There are no running straight lines, so hand piecing was really quite perfect. Every night I would pull up the big venue on the ...

Just Hexing along .... from Applique 'n Patch Quilting

Can you see me rubbing my hands with glee? Much, much progress has been made on this UFO! Part of the red hexie border has been sewn together and attached to the center.

Three small sections are now ready to be attached to the center and to the border. One section at a time and this top keeps moving along.

This photo below gives you a good idea of what remains of the red border to do.

Labels have been pinned to the left side border and photos taken. Soon, all these hexies will get pinned onto my working boards ...

Hexie coming along! from Applique 'n Patch Quilting

Much, much progress is getting done on this old UFO! So, so happy to see this happening.

All the red hexies have now been prepped. Sewing of them will happen along with the remainder of the white hexies. Got to switch from white to red occasionally to keep boredom from coming and stalling this project. Still, isn't that red hexie border going to be gorgeous! It will give the project that zing that I hadn't initially thought about. My dear hubby suggested it to me and he was so right!

For the last section, all the white hexies ...

Cheater hexies from Applique 'n Patch Quilting

In a bid to move this hexie project along, it got hung up on the design wall and the light bulb clicked on and I started to play.

As my idea was a happy thought, more and more white hexies were made. This project is now moving along very nicely. Why cheater hexies, you are wondering? The centers are cut from a cheater panel and then appliqued into a hexagon frame. If I didn't tell you this, you would think that hours were spent embroidering all those designs. No, not this time .... but the panel did appeal to me ...

Hexie a go-go Again from Applique 'n Patch Quilting

I do think that is what this quilt should be called ..... Hexie a-go-go! Has a nice ring to it! It is off the design wall and ready for taking along with me to the cottage for sewing together or along to babysitting (rest of June is going to be a busy month with babies).

The bottom four rows are now a finished section. The next three rows up are attached into individual strips. These strips just need to be sewn together and then sewn to the bottom section.

It is the middle of the month and this quilt is at ...

Busy as .... from Applique 'n Patch Quilting

This past week was busy and so is this week. My Hubby has one more week with the Parkinson's program and then he has homework to do to keep up the exercises and tips for getting up when he falls, for putting on a winter coat walking, writing and so on .....

He did have a memory test and didn't do so well. Based on this, the Doctor is reporting him to DOT and they will send him a letter revoking his driver's license. I'm happy about this as he was doing some funny things while driving ...

Hexie Quilt-a-long and 46th wedding anniversary. from Applique 'n Patch Quilting

Much, much progress has been made on this project .... because .... that is the only thing I'm working on right now, except for bindings! I'm obsessed with these hexies!

After looking at this photo, I realized that most of the hexies have been turned around ... so great progress has been made. Since this quilt will be reversible, I want the back to look interesting too and colour placement is crucial. You can probably see some triangle scraps sitting on top of some hexies. Those are the back colours that will be used of which some are off on the ...
