Hexagons

I am a little out of sorts with the move and all of the packing. It's hard to move with two kids "helping." I have a feeling unpacking may be entertaining, since I have already caught them sneaking things into boxes (including toys, random pieces of paper, and cheerios).

Anyway, being so busy with packing, I haven't allowed myself any time to create, which has been very hard on my state of mind. I have completed a small whole-cloth quilt for a friend, but I will wait to show those pictures until after the quilt is delivered.

In the meantime, I think hexagons might be the thing that saves me! I used this tutorial and have been doing some hand-sewing (a first for me). This is a great project for me right now because it is super simple, requires almost no tools (that have all been packed away...), and uses scrap fabrics (which I have a ton of!). I have no idea what I'll use the hexagons for, maybe a placemat or table runner, but I think they're cute and they are fun to make.

Some of the scraps waiting to be "hexagoned." :)
