It is beautiful . May I ask about how many hexagons are used in order to make a quilt that size ? Thank you.

I'll say! It looks terrific. Are you working on number four or taking a break?

The colors are just beautiful! What a gorgeous quilt!

So pretty! You are fast becoming Queen of the Hexies. :)

Thank you!

Here's the rundown on the numbers needed: 124 white (background), 142 petals, plus 23 centers. Some "flowers" will be cut in half and trimmed around the edges.

The quilt measures approximately 55" x 65".

Thanks Vee!

I've already started another quilt--yet to be revealed! But it's not hexagons this time, though I do plan on making more of those at some point. I truly miss all the hand-piecing in the evenings.

I'm dreaming of all the ways one can make a hexagon quilt...the variations are endless.

Love those hexies! The pink and yellow make for a really striking and pretty quilt. Looking forward to your next project.

Awesome, thank you so much..I have giant hexagons that measure 5 inches across the top. I assume yours are smaller , I think I read 3 inches ..Ill try.

What a pretty room. Your beautiful quilt fits in so nicely. I love how it looks modern and old fashioned, both. It suits a young lady of today, I think.
