Mini Hexagon Quilt 3

IT"S GROWING!!!!

Oh,
I can't even tell you how exciting this project is!!!!

It's super SMALL...
A little tedious...
NOT perfect...
LOL!!!
And who cares?
I'm having FUN, FUN, FUN!!!

OK...
OK...
OK...
Let me say 
ONE
 little thing about PERFECTION...

WE
ARE 
NOT
PERFECT
BEINGS!!!

"Excellence"
you can obtain,

Perfection
is GOD'S business!!! 

Back to the 
Mini Hexagon Quilt...

Here's the next row completed...

Now attached to the main quilt

It's SEW fun to see this growing!!!!
WOOHOO!!!

My apologies to you,
I got SO excited about sewing these rows together,
I forgot to take a picture of the sewn row!
LOL!

The next row is the 4 hexagon row

I thought you might like to see the back... 
Notice the grey "diamonds"...
Here's a TIP!
I split the seam in the middle so each point could lay flat!
This really will help with the bulk of the seam allowances building up.

When sewing the ROWS together
It's important to get the points matching!

Here's how to do it...
With right sides together,
take a pin and put it through the top
POINT
of each triangle where the seam should be.
Leave the pin straight through the fabric
(as you see on the left of the picture below)
then take a different pin and going in at an angel,
pin the point together so the points are still matching
(as you see on the right of the picture).

Here's a close up of where to put your pin. 

Sew the rows together now
and this is where we are so far! 

WOOHOO!!!
I LOVE how the one PINK star SHINES!!!!
LOVE
LOVE
LOVE
this!!!!

Now...
Let's go look at Christmas lights!

Maybe it'll be done tomorrow?
Maybe!
HA!

Go try something different!

Sew the pieces of life together!
They make a BEAUTIFUL quilt!!!!
