Hexagons!

I said I was gonna dive back into the red & aqua quilt but I couldn't bring myself to sew another wonky log cabin block.  I know! I was shocked too!  I've actually hit my limit.  I'm sure not for long - I'm certain to be back to my beloved soon enough but meanwhile I've been seeing these half hex quilts all over the place and I've been wanting to futz with one. I struggle with finding most traditional quilt patterns too "old fashion-y", but that's part of the challenge right?  How do you take something tradition and modern it up?  That sentiment, plus my love of white space led me to this!

Hexagons!

I technically did it "wrong." The rows of hexs are not matched up, but I like the look.  It was fun to mess with all those little cut out peices until I found the layout I liked best.

I'm really excited to get quilting on this one.  I think I'm gonna try something new!  Can you tell I'm trying to break out of my stippled log cabin quilt rut??

Have a great weekend everyone!
