I am out of the background hexies to go any further, so this project will wait till I get some more basted. Tomorrow will bring marking and pin basting the next quilt to go into the hoop. I will be using my new Barnett hoop for the first time so that is exciting.Carla A Few Of My Favorite Thingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14782840958923418159noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3551007238143198780.post-84490834181043376782014-01-19T18:50:16.298-06:002014-01-19T18:50:16.298-06:00I'm really enjoying seeing your progress on yo...I'm really enjoying seeing your progress on your hexi project! <br /><br />I originally intended my hexies to be a travel project, but I confess that there are times when I just don't feel like wrestling my quilt in the hoop ... it's nice to have something quick and easy so I can continue to work with my needle and thread. ;-)Kathy ... aka Nanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17626590048036292030noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3551007238143198780.post-77362658039772389732014-01-19T18:48:57.470-06:002014-01-19T18:48:57.470-06:00Thanks Audrey!

I can't wait to have this frame for the medallion block finished. It is going to be bigger than I had in my mind, so I am not sure how it will look till it is fully assembled. Then beyond that, I have no thought, I am hoping once I figure out what I will do in the applique block in the center that I will have an idea which way to go. That is what I am hoping for anyway!Carla A Few Of My Favorite Thingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14782840958923418159noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3551007238143198780.post-60329064075335376052014-01-19T12:58:22.059-06:002014-01-19T12:58:22.059-06:00I agree, it has been a bit dreary here too!I agree, it has been a bit dreary here too!Carla A Few Of My Favorite Thingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14782840958923418159noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3551007238143198780.post-39890560147352118682014-01-19T12:49:37.192-06:002014-01-19T12:49:37.192-06:00I love the black on this.
