These are the filler pieces. I've made six of the unit at the top. It will fill in the "V" in the top and bottom rows and also it will also fill out the corners as it connects to the side units of which there are four.
When joined this is what the units that fit the corners will look like.
The top and bottom rows have all of their fillers attached. The middle row is snuggled up between them to give you an idea of how it will look!
So now the rows can be stitched together and then the whole thing will be appliqued to a background fabric. So far everything has come from my stash and I've got a lovely blue that will work just fine for the background. My plan is to prepare it today so that once the rows are stitched together I will be ready for the next step!
It is a short post today. Hopefully there'll be more to share soon! Until I post again, happy sewing.

I love the way you do the mid pieces. And the colours are so perfect. Looking forward to your next step.
ReplyDeleteLovely, Karen! The fabrics you are using as the large block centres are beautiful and you've got a 'well framed' look! Great progress :-)
ReplyDeleteI so enjoy looking at these!
ReplyDeleteThe birds are just so beautiful. I still think hexies are the best shape ever! Still working on hubby about a hexagon shaped house : )
ReplyDeleteThis is looking so lovely, I just love those scrappy filler hexies.
ReplyDeleteI think your progress is going along at a pretty fast clip! It all looks wonderful!
ReplyDeleteLooks great but you do realize that your idea of "slow progress" is rapido for the rest of us!!
ReplyDeleteSuch pretty fabrics in your frames. You are making great progress on this & I may have to check this out this pattern again!!

ReplyDeleteWonderful. And so fast. Do you make them in your sleep? Groetjes, Dientje
ReplyDeleteIt's a beauty and your progress doesn't look slow to me. It seems to be coming together quickly.
ReplyDeleteYes, to all that has been said. Karen, I can't imagine that you have time for anyghing else in your life. You have raised the bar on how fast one can actually hand sew hexagons. I wish I lived closer to attend your upcoming workshop. This parrot quilt will become another masterpiece. I love reading your posts more than anyone else's. Wow, I love this quilt too!
