Hi friends,
I am tempted to call this Geometric Rainbow 2.0 since it is so similar to my last big hexie project, but the jury is still out on that one. What I do know is that I fell in love with this fabric before I even cut it - and it was in fact painful to cut (I was so worried I was going to get the ombré effect out of order!) Vanessa Christenson of V and Co. was so sweet to send me the full ombré collection for Moda and this is exactly what I wanted to do with it, make a large scale hexagon piece.
I will be sending this to her to have in her booth at Fall Quilt Market in Houston, so if you are there stop by and take a peek!
I usually stick with the darker brick wall on our building's patio but the white wall in my landlords basement was too tempting! Enjoy some pictures and some close ups :)
There are a total of 340 hexagons on this project - 17 hexies in each colorway. I used my Modern Hexies method of applying them to the backing fabric and then quilting from corner to corner.
Thanks for stopping by today and if you would like to make a project like this of your own - be sure to check out my Hexie Pillow pattern here. It has the full Modern Hexies method including video links to help you with your project!
Happy sewing,
-Nicole
