I might actually enjoy applique and hexagons. I held off for as long as I could, but I just couldn't resist how cute these little hexagons are. I don't know that I will ever make a quilt with them, but they are so fun to add to projects.
These hexagons made their way to a bib.
Now that my baby is 8(!) months and eating solid food, I'm finding that our bibs from the older kids are pretty much worn out. I made couple of these several months ago as an easy quick project. I just think they are adorable, so I whipped up a few more for the babe and a few for my shop.
and I always love a stack of quilts, so of course I love a stack of bibs...it's like a bib sandwich.
pattern can be found here.

ReplyDeleteThose bibs are adorable! I make really neat bibs out of terry cloth for my little girl and all of my neighbors that my husband has titled "full coverage" If you would like, I would love to send one off to you!

Thanks for the link. They are absolutely gorgeous. Maybe I could make a couple tonight???

ReplyDeleteGreat use for the hexies. My sis is trying to get me to try them, too. I like that you found a small way to do them, without diving in to a whole quilt. Nice work!
ReplyDeleteThose are such cute bibs!
ReplyDeletethose bibs are precious! What a great idea!
ReplyDeleteI'm terribly addicted to hexagons right now. I don't know why! Your bibs are adorable.
ReplyDeleteThose three little hexagons on linen made with fabrics in MY stash, adorable, such a favourite colour combination.
ReplyDeletethese are so beautiful!
ReplyDeleteYes I agree, appliqué is used extensively in quilting. "Dresden Plate" and "Sunbonnet Sue" are two examples of traditional American quilt blocks that are constructed with both patchwork and appliqué.
