A Macro Mondays submission on the topic "hexagons". It turns out that soap bubbles do not like forming hexagons, but there are a few in this image (with pentagons etc)
The plastic elements of one of the reflectors on the side of our caravan. The portion shown is less than 1" wide.
I started this project almost a year ago, and finally finished! Crocheted in Biggan Design wool, and using Lucy's (Attic 24) hexagon how-to pattern. The pillow measures approx. 60cm x 30cm, and I finished the ends with some pompom trim.
I made this bag for a fundraising raffle (in support of a local nonprofit). The weather has been super cold and crappy lately, and I ran out of time to fuss over the pictures as I usually do. I didn't bother with my tripod, just used a high ISO and said 'good enough!'.
The dark grey fabric is wool or a wool blend. The plaids are from cotton shirts that I cut up. All of these fabrics are from thrift stores.
I hand pieced the hexagons using the English paper piecing method. Each side measures 1 inch. After I removed the paper, I machine quilted the hexagon panel onto a scrap of muslin. Then I trimmed it square and pieced the wool around it.
I'm very proud of how it turned out! The plaids mesh really well and pop quite nicely against the grey.

The body strobe can be used more than 2:1. here I was at the limit, the lense is covering the low part of the photo from the strobe, and petals are covering the high parts :)
Here is from where the black comes.
Assemble the half hexagons into vertical or horizontal rows, fabric placement is crucial to give the look of full hexagons, so a design wall where patches can be arranged is useful. Join the rows to form the quilt.
Today I have been travelling with many ferryboats. That gave me time to sew these two cuties. The whole quilt in the background, about 2000 hexies 1/4" size.
Finished the hexagon top. 12 rows of 93 hexs each. Took about 10 months to English paper piece, then hand sew every seam.
