Awesome thank you 🥰

Started my day with you and coffee. Like how you think "outside the box" 😊

I really like your approach to backing your patchwork. Thank you for sharing your insights.

They have clear epoxy stickers that go on the top of those punches. I have them as well.

I love this

New subbie. I love watching you stitch can you do a video showing how you put the rest of the purse together?

I bought a ream of lightweight cardstock to use as the inner papers. They are reusable many times because with my sewing technique I do not have to fold any of them. I trace one hexie over and over on the cardstock then cut them all out with scissors. That project in itself is relaxing so I don't need to speed it up. To cut the fabric, I have a plexiglass template that is just slightly larger than my cardboard inserts. I rough cut a stack of pieces of fabric that are a little bigger than the plexiglass template then I take each of those pieces and hold them against the plexiglass and cut the edges with the scissors skimming the edges. If the fabric has gotten wrinkled while it was stored, I iron the hexies after spraying them with a little spray starch. When I get ready to sew them, I fold the fabric over the cardstock and fasten the sides using a small fabric clip on each corner. I remove the clip as I come to that side. I can swivel the clips out of my way as I am working. I like your idea of using lightweight flannel blankets for a bed quilt or a couch throw so it is not too warm. I have not made anything that large yet. I made two placemat sized pieces for our butler side table using regular batting. That table is next to my husband's favorite chair. He puts brimming mugs of coffee on that table, and I wanted something that would not show coffee drips, well sloshes really. I wash the one cover when I can wrest it from him, getting all of his clutter off of it and switch it with the other cover I sewed. Those covers I quilted on my machine and stitched in the ditch. I also sew coasters using seven hexies in a circle with regular batting in the middle. I sit on my couch sewing them while watching my old Perry Mason and Murder She Wrote DVDs. I collect so many coasters that I have to donate them to charity and give them to friends. They make nice candle mats. Those battery candles are sometimes a little sticky because they are made of plastic and these coasters are perfect for them.

I have followed your video and am about to start last two sides ..wondering if cutting the little slit into backing fabric does it not fray? Love your method though ❤

Your creations are so amazing! I love them all! Sending you hugs and happy 4th wishes for your weekend my friend. #showandtell

I like that, with this size of patch, or smaller, you really only need to tack the fabric at each corner over the papers, so you can so easily pop them out, and the seam allowances then are stitched down. Makes pressing so easy. Pay attention to getting 2 parallel edges on the straight of the grain, and the finished quilt will lay flatter for you. When I’m starting to sew patches together I start off in the seam allowance so the knot isn’t in the seam itself. You can sew them on a zig zag machine, with a very narrow zig zag, from the right side. Just butt them up together. Try that with invisible soft thread. I use a seam allowance of 1/4 -3/8”, less in emergencies, but more than that I trim off, or it gets lumpy. I like making “flower gardens” with several layers, and a neutral or navy ‘path’ between. Another nice shape is a diamond shape, by sewing a flower shape, then put and extra patch top and bottom, then work another layer around that, and voila, you have a diamond shape, and put paths between. Very nice look!

Oh how exciting!, that all came quick! thanks so much for the shout out, you are so sweet. oooooo I love you're choices awesome 😍 can't wait to see you use them! .....ooooo you could stitch around those wooden bottoms and add them to a stitching project too. I feel your week..... I'm still on my back with my foot🤪 and just about to have some teeth taken out😫 don't get old 🥸😂 how cute are those coin purses, I think I have a heap of carbon paper...ill look

I like just a ribbon closure, I’m still deciding on how to do my inside 🤪😝 I love your expandable pocket, did you do a video on how you made the little box?

Very creative 😍

Wow all your squares are looking great 🤗👏🏼

Wow! Thank you… I wanted to do this and could not work our how, my only difficulty is I dislike hand sewing… 😅

Love, love, love the quilt as well as the pillow 💐🥳

I just watched a post by a hexi lover. She makes templates from very stiff stabilizer she buys on Amazon. The templates are left in. Saves an extra step in making hexies.

Love this!

Can't wait to see finished product !!!

You do good hand work. It looks very relaxing. I will give it a try. Thanks for the tutorial

That turned out so cute!

That folded box, so clever.

This is very nice and useful. Thank you!

Great tutorial. Love how you folded for pockets. Thank you.

I’ve been enjoying all your neat ideas👏🏼🤩

What an awesome pouch🤯 I love this idea👏🏼 well done !

Love your “hausfrau” name for the sewing roll 🤗 Well done on the scrap sorting. So happy you made this video my friend and thank you so much for the shoutout for my huswif and videos 💙 lots of exciting plans for yours - can’t wait to see how it evolves! cheers, Christine

Maravilloso su trabajo, no podrías dar la medida de un lado del hexágono para hacer un molde, gracias por enseñarlos este trabajo tan lindo💕

I just started mine too🤩 I love Christine’s work she’s amazing…. Check out mine it’s Australian wild flower themed 🥰

Wow. I love the way you find a way with what you have in your home! Impressive. Don'g have to spend hundreds of dollars. Money into thread and fabric!!

Lovely to spend some time with you - I was stitching on my huswif or needle roll 🤗💛💙🧵🪡

Sorry for the bad audio. I am working on getting a mic.❤

I love your projects! That pin cushion is adorable- you are so talented my friend. You've kept me company while I sort my shameful stash of lace and trim. Long way from done but will be nice when it is! Love you!

Soo good! I’m just learning to embroider, these are adorable! ❤

I came across your video and I’m so grateful for you sharing your knowledge. Thank you. About a year ago I attended a free class at out local community center, and I learned about English paper piecing with 1 inch hexagons. Our teacher had made a beautiful quilt by hand while she was battling her breast cancer and going to her chemo treatments she took her little hexi sewing kit with her. I was so inspired by her and what I learned, I have been doing the same. I have so many doctors appointments these days and I hand sewn myself a huswif or called a housewife sewing kit to take my hexi with me and I get a lot more done than I would only being at home. I use my old Christmas cards for my paper hexis, but I’m definitely planning on getting a punch. I also found the tutorial and pattern for free for the huswif here on utube, there are several , so I just picked one that I liked. I thank you again and look forward to watching your channel. It’s nice to sit and sew with you while watching 😊, almost like a sewing bee with a fellow hexi lover. Happy sewing.😊
