fungusqueen:Currently working on another hexagon quilt (cat pictured for scale). You can probably tell this one is “floral” themed. If you’ve seen my other hexagon works in progress, it’s also made using the English Paper Piecing technique which involves basting fabric to paper and then hand-sewing the edges. The paper can be removed after all 6 edges are surrounded. The fabric maintains the exact shape of the paper, which is important when piecing more complex shapes with varying angles. It would be very difficult to match everything up without this technique, since free-handing it on a sewing machine would require a lot of turning and super precise measuring of seam allowances Update on my floral hexagon quilt & my cat. I’ve successfully quilted this (attached the top to the batting and backing) and I just have to bind the edges with bias tape! I’ve chosen an orange color for the edges -- source link
