QAYG hexi on-the-go project

Quilt as You Go Hexis (Perfect "on-the-go" project!)

*Cut backing fabric with #55011 large hexi shape.
*Cut front and batting with medium shape from same die.
*Use washable glue to attach batting to wrong side of backing (I made a template for placement.)
*Set front fabric, right side up, on batting, completing quilt sandwhich.
*Fold raw edge to touch batting on first side.
*Fold again, and pin.
*Repeat all the way around. Sew the self edge binding down.
*Enjoy!

Qube - open the box !

Tip for those who have a Qube still in the wrapper...

Find some different colored scraps of fabric and cut out 8 or so pieces of each shape.

Take all those pieces and go set down and play with them, arranging in different ways: 4 patches, 9 patches, etc. 

You will be amazed by what you come up with. And you soon will be cutting out a quilt with them.
