Scrappy & Low Volume Quilt Fabric Charm Swap (Round 3 & Round 4)


I know I'm insane for doing this, but I felt bad because I gave my regulars an opportunity to sign up early for the Round 3 of the Scrappy Swap and it filled up before I opened it to the public!!! Sew... I'm doing Round 4 simultaneously. Both rounds have the same exact rules: Scrappy & Low Volume.

Read the rules here

Until next time,

Mike.

Making a T-Shirt Quilt

I just wanted to share a finish that I have been holding back on because it was a birthday gift. My brother recently had a milestone birthday so I had his wife mail me a bunch of his t-shirts so I could turn them into a quilt. I also sent her some fabric for everyone to sign. Here are the pics:






 I loved the note on this. I made a pillow out of this and sent it in the package :)


I also went to a quilt show in Pennsylvania on Sunday and saw some gorgeous projects:








Also, a friend of mine saw a quilt exhibit in Nashville that was cool:







Sorry for the long post... but it was picture filled :)
Until next time,
Mike.

How do YOU spell Hexy?????

I saw this post yesterday and it made me wonder... I often wonder about this. I'm a traditionalist when it comes to spelling and grammar. I think it should be HEXY (adjective, noun) and HEXIES (pl. noun). But I often see HEXIE (adjective, singular noun) or HEXI. I thought maybe we could vote on it!!! There is a voting widget at the very end of this post.

By the way... if you like things hexy, you should join this community on Google: I'm Hexy and I Know It!!!

Here are some pictures for inspiration. Most of them were taken on my hexy commute everyday and posted to my instagram and flickr accounts :)

See you next time!

Mike.
