I have just finished this cover for my No.2 Son. 60 hexagons, FSL, and

very fiddly to put together, but it is going to a good home.

Stunning! They will treasure it forever I am sure. It's gorgeous and well worth all your time, sweat, tears and possibly frustrations! :)

Yes, it looks like it would be difficult to put together. Nice work.

It wasn't really difficult, more very
fiddly as the hexagons measured 3 and a
quarter inches across, and there were 60
of them, but he was over the moon with
it. *4U

You reckon I am? I said I won't make anything so complicated next time, and now I have been coaxed into making another
quilt, it will have 252 5 x 7 blocks in
it, I must be mad! *4U

So pretty ! Sometimes I think we should hang a tag from our work so that friends/relatives will know a few things about it......such as on this one....... "There are a million stitches in this....." *smiling*

You've put a lot of work into this. *4U

Actually, for my kids, I DO let them know
how long it took, how many stitches, how
much thread etc., hoping they won't ask for more, but it doesn't put them off!
Good old Mum eh? *4U

Nearly 4 x 1000 reels went into it. I've
already made him a quilt, look on page 192 (or 193), and now he has asked for
another one !!!! *4U
