We are drawing near our first official meeting for the BMQG. On a quick whim we discussed how easy paper piecing really was. Some things are quite overwhelming until they are broken down into steps, and made more clear. This is what we will be doing on the 19th.
We ask that you bring a few things to participate in this session, but if you do not have something please come down as we will have things to share as well.
please see our meeting supply list below.
Please bring to the meeting::
approx 10 fabric scraps about 3.5x3.5
Scissors
Hand sewing needles
straight pins
Thread
We also ask that you bring anything that your working on. If you didn't get to showoff your work at the last meeting feel free to bring it down. We will be having show and tell at every meeting.
Paper pieces will be provided to learn!
Just wait... in no time you will be making quilts with these addicting little suckers.
We will see everyone there!

ReplyDeleteWho knew this was so easy? It makes me wonder why I held off trying these little hexies. Thanks for the lessons T, M and J. You're right, they are addictive!
ReplyDeleteThe meeting was great! It's always fun to learn something new and enjoy pleasant company! I've been hexified!
ReplyDeletethanks Terri, Meg, and Jen for all your work bringing a modern quilt guild to Bakersfield. I enjoyed the hexies and learning the two methods. Nice easy project for everyone to sit, stitch, and get to know each other.
ReplyDeleteThis post takes me back! Thanks for teaching me how to make hexies! I must admit that I've started a project that may never get finished but it sure is fun to work on.
