I finally got around to finishing up the latest row in Lori’s row along! Her “stars” row is just adorable…I had so much fun picking my twinkling stars fabrics!
The only problem with finishing a row early (I actually made this last week) is that you then have a really long time to wait for the next row!
Back in the early part of December, Lori sent me two of her new rulers to try out…the Hexie Half for 5″ squares…
And the Hexie Half for 10″ squares. Both rulers are acrylic and have the mitered corners to make sewing easier (no pesky corners to trim off). I love the fact that these rulers are perfectly sized so you can cut 2 per 5″ square with the smaller size or 2 per 10″ square when using the larger size. These rulers are going to come in very handy…because I love hexagon projects! The rulers will be available soon here!
I also have a post up today at Moda’s Cutting Table blog where I’m sharing some ideas on Moda Bella Solids…I even have a couple of ideas over on that post from Carrie Nelson!
Thanks so much for stopping by today!

I so wish I had started this one, I love row quilts. Looks great.
Michelle says
Now I feel bad I'm only up to the apples! The quilt looks great with all those rows together, I have to get a wriggle on.
Cindy says
LOL, I can relate to "getting done early", then having to wait. I'm tempted to do just that in a Sew-A-Long – do I behave and wait? LOL
Ooh, never saw a half hexie template like this one – very cool! Might have to look into it. Thanks.

those are really pretty stars! Look easy, too. Are they?

I would love to play with half hexies sometime….
I got a chance to listen to your radio show with Pat tonight. It was great. You did a great job!

I love those rows – and the colors you picked are perfect!

Your row along is looking gorgeous! It is so bright and happy, yet not glaringly harsh bright. Some bright projects are gaudy, but yours is definitely pretty. I'd really like to do this row along this year. I've been bookmarking the instructions.
