Dreamy Hexagons Part 5, The First Border Is Done.

Blog 49

Welcome back to SEAMS LIKE HOME!

Continuing with the Dreamy Hexagon Quilt.  The center Medallion is done.  All Hexi's have been hand sewn together then appliqued on to the "Brassica" cabbages and appliqued onto the background "Jupiter".


Border number one is strips of the fabric named "Flame Stitch" from the Kaffe Fassett collection.  The cornerstones are the smaller cabbages from "Brassica".  It was a fast border to make. The only difficulty was in cutting "Flame Stitch"  since we have to be careful to save enough for border number 5.


Now I have to sew together the "Picotte Poppies" and "Aboriginal Dot" fabrics to make 36 squares.
That's going to take me a while so I'll be back with more once border number 2 is ready to go.

I do wish you could see this in person, the colors are WONDERFUL!
